How does it work?
The Cambridge Wellbeing Check is a simple, student-led assessment that takes about 20 minutes of screen time (it works on desktop, tablet and mobile devices). We designed the test specifically to work as part of existing wellbeing or pastoral care teaching, complementing and enhancing what you're already doing. It's not a tool to measure or diagnose a student's mental health. The reports help all teachers see a complete picture of wellbeing at individual, class and even whole-school levels.
Multiple students can complete the Cambridge Wellbeing Check at the same time. The assessment is flexible and free from paperwork and marking - it even comes with easy-to-integrate follow-up lesson plans.
You can use the Cambridge Wellbeing Check as much as you want or need to over the academic year. We designed an instant wellbeing snapshot to help you track, monitor, and evaluate wellbeing throughout students' learning journeys, such as in the run-up to exams, starting a new year or school, or any other significant milestones.
Tools to support you
After your students have taken the Cambridge Wellbeing Check, you'll automatically get the following:
Easy-to-understand reports
Get a clear picture of how each of your students is doing across four areas of wellbeing:
- interpersonal wellbeing
- life satisfaction
- competence wellbeing
- negative emotions.
You'll be able to look at each student's wellbeing over time and see how this changes over the year, allowing you to put targeted support and interventions in place.
Longer term, you'll also be able to compare groups or classes in your school and identify trends across the four wellbeing focus areas covered in the check.
