The WISERD Multi-Cohort Study (WMCS) is an annual longitudinal study to chart the progress of children and young people growing up in Wales. Each year, we follow three cohorts from schools across Wales and ask questions about their experiences of school and their perspectives on national and international issues.

Here, we provide a summary of key findings from the 2023-24 school year’s survey with numbers rounded to the nearest whole percentage. Summaries of results for all of our questions from each year of the survey (2012 onwards) are available on the WISERD Data Portal.
