This document contains headline results from a major national survey of secondary schoolchildren aged 11-15 published today by the Department of Health. The National Centre for Social Research (NatCen) and the National Foundation for Educational Research (NFER) carried out the survey for the Department of Health. Just under 10,000 pupils in 313 schools in England completed questionnaires in the autumn term of 2004. The main report on the survey will be published in autumn 2005. The survey is the most recent in a series that began in 1982. Some of the headline figures from 2004 have been revised since the original publication on 9th March 2005.
