This year the Student Wellbeing and Engagement Survey (the SWES) will be conducted in Tasmanian Government Schools from August 26 to September 20.
The SWES gives us important information about Tasmanian student’s wellbeing that helps us make the education system better. We look at the data from the survey and use it to come up with new ideas and make the things we already do even better.
Students in Years 4 to 12 take part in the SWES every year. In 2023, we had a lot of students take part—28 750 in total!

Answers are available to some of the common questions from students, parents and carers, and anyone else.
