Tasmania's young people are feeling increasingly positive about their learning environments and school communities, according to the latest Student Wellbeing and Engagement Survey.
Minister for Education, Jo Palmer, said student responses have remained strong since the survey began in 2021.
"This sustained progress really highlights the lasting impact of our system-wide wellbeing initiatives and the dedicated efforts of schools to create safe, inclusive, and supportive learning environments," Minister Palmer said.
"In 2025, 28,392 Year 4 to 12 students in Tasmanian Government schools took part in the survey, reporting that they feel safer at school, more positive about their learning environments, and have a stronger sense of belonging.
"Pleasingly, 2025 also recorded the highest student participation rate since the survey began."

"Our Government is doing what matters by delivering for young Tasmanians."
