Abstract: This report presents the findings from the National Behaviour Survey (NBS) academic year 2024/25. The NBS is designed to provide the Department for Education with termly survey data related to pupil behaviour in state-funded primary, secondary and special schools in England collected from multiple respondent groups (school leaders, teachers, pupils and parents). The NBS 2024/25 was delivered via multiple survey waves conducted through the Department for Education's omnibus panel surveys (the School and College Voice and the Parent, Pupil and Learner Voice) in December 2024, February 2025, March 2025, May 2025 and June 2025. The NBS survey has questions covering a range of topics related to pupil behaviour in schools. This report is structured in line with these topics, with chapters containing findings related to: (1) school behaviour culture and policy; (2) behaviour management; (3) school environment and experience; and (4) frequency and impact of misbehaviour. As in previous years, there was divergence between school leaders, teachers and pupils on their responses to several survey questions relating to school environment and misbehaviour; school leaders tended to give more positive responses than teachers, who in turn tended to give more positive responses than pupils. Survey findings have been compared with the Academic Year 2023/24 (typically the May 2024 timepoint) at a minimum. Where findings have been shown to be statistically significantly different to previous survey waves, this is commented upon in the text.
