Description: <P>Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.</P>The <span style="font-style: italic;">Active Lives Children and Young People Survey</span>, which was established in September 2017, provides a world-leading approach to gathering data on how children engage with sport and physical activity. This school-based survey is the first and largest established physical activity survey with children and young people in England. It gives anyone working with children aged 5-16 key insight to help understand children's attitudes and behaviours around sport and physical activity. The results will shape and influence local decision-making as well as inform government policy on the PE and Sport Premium, Childhood Obesity Plan and other cross-departmental programmes. More general information about the study can be found on the Sport England&nbsp;<a href="https://www.sportengland.org/research/active-lives-survey/" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Active Lives Survey</a>&nbsp;webpage and the&nbsp;<a href="https://activelives.sportengland.org/" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Active Lives Online</a>&nbsp;website, including reports and data tables.<br><br><br>
<p>The <span style="font-style: italic;">Active Lives Children and Young People Survey, 2017-2018</span> commenced during school academic year 2017 / 2018. It ran from autumn term 2017 to summer term 2018 and excludes school holidays.&nbsp;The survey identifies how participation varies across different activities and sports, by regions of England, between school types and terms, and between different demographic groups in the population. The survey measures levels of activity (active, fairly active and less active), attitudes towards sport and physical activity, swimming capability, the proportion of children and young people that volunteer in sport, sports spectating, and wellbeing measures such as happiness and life satisfaction. The questionnaire was designed to enable analysis of the findings by a broad range of variables, such as gender, family affluence and school year.<br><br>The following datasets are available:</p><p>1)&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Main dataset includes responses from children and young people from school years 3 to 11, as well as responses from parents of children in years 1-2. The parents of children in years 1-2 provide behavioural answers about their child's activity levels, they do not provide attitudinal information. Using this main dataset, full analyses can be carried out into sports and physical activity participation, levels of activity, volunteering (years 5 to 11), etc. Weighting is required when using this dataset (wt_gross / wt_set1.csplan).</p><p>2)&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Year 1-2 pupil dataset includes responses from children in school years 1-2 directly, providing their attitudinal responses (e.g. whether they like playing sport and find it easy). Analysis can be carried out into feelings towards swimming, enjoyment for being active, happiness etc. Weighting is required when using this dataset (wt_gross / wt_set1.csplan).</p><p>3)&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Teacher dataset includes responses from the teachers at schools selected for the survey. Analysis can be carried out into school facilities available, length of PE lessons, whether swimming lessons are offered, etc. Weighting is not required when using this dataset. <br><br>For further information about the variables available for analysis, and the relevant school years asked survey questions, please see the supporting documentation. Please read the documentation before using the datasets.&nbsp;</p>
