School Research Project

Tēnā koutou,
Our school has decided to participate in a strengths-based research project about how students learn, succeed and thrive at school. This project is being conducted by Dr Melinda Webber from the University of Auckland and has been funded by the Royal Society of New Zealand, Te Apārangi. Our school would like to invite you and your school aged children to take part in this important research project by completing short questionnaires – either online or in hardcopy.

Completing this survey will help our school to find out more about how our students develop positive attitudes, engagement and aspirations towards school, and who their role-models for success are. Overall the questionnaires will help us to better understand the personal, teacher, whānau and community factors that positively impact our students learning and success at school.
This study involves you:

  • Completing a questionnaire about your child’s attitude, engagement at school and their future aspirations. It also asks you to nominate and describe a family, tribal or local role-model for your child.
  • Giving permission for your child to also complete a questionnaire at school about their attitude, engagement at school and their future aspirations.

Each questionnaire should take between 15-30 minutes to complete.
