Cognitive Testing for the School Sport Survey

Descriptions

Sport Wales has conducted surveys of participation in and provision of school sport approximately every two years since 1990. The surveys provide a base of evidence from which to shape sports policy and practice. The most recent survey was held in 2022, where over 116,000 pupils from 1,000 schools took part across Wales. Further details and results from the 2022 School Sport Survey can be found here.Whilst the survey remains world leading in size, reputation and longevity, Sport Wales is always seeking to reflect and review during each cycle. Therefore, in anticipation of the next cycle, Sport Wales are looking to tender for cognitive testing - assessing young people’s understanding and interpretation – of certain constructs, questions, and response options within the survey. The ultimate goal is to further strengthen the survey’s ability to provide accurate and informed insights to enhance decision-making across the business and the sector, and to gain further understanding of young people’s interpretation of certain sport constructs.
