self-esteem
Croydon Council is currently reviewing pupil wellbeing data, which includes positive outlook on life, following a recent survey.
In March 2026, Croydon Council's Health and Wellbeing Survey for School-Age Children and Young People (2024/25) reported that 73% of pupils had a positive outlook on life, which relates to confidence in one's own worth. The survey, involving 4,852 pupils from 60 schools, also found 85% of students reported good general health, with 31% exercising daily, an increase from 25% previously.
Despite these positive trends, the survey indicated that concerns about bullying and discrimination persisted among pupils in Croydon. No further discussions or decisions regarding self-esteem are currently scheduled at Croydon Council or other councils based on the available information.
