ASH Year 10 Snapshot Survey

2021 ASH Year 10 Snapshot Survey

ASH NZ invites all schools with Year 10 students to participate in the ASH Year 10 Snapshot Survey 2021. The survey will be conducted in Term 2, between 26 May and 9 July 2021.

Your school’s participation is vitally important for ensuring we have an accurate reflection of youth smoking and vaping related attitudes and behaviours across Aotearoa New Zealand. The results are provided to participating schools, with national results so you will be able to compare your school. The results will help schools monitor trends among their students and develop relevant policies, processes, and initiatives for their school.

For more information see the Information Sheet for Schools below.

If your school did not receive an invitation in the mail, please contact ASH researcher Sally Wong via email at [email protected]

About the ASH Year 10 Snapshot

The ASH Year 10 Snapshot surveys 20,000-30,000 students every year on their smoking behaviour and attitudes – one of the largest youth smoking surveys in the world. It is a census style survey – all New Zealand public and private schools with Year 10 students are invited to participate each year. The Snapshot began in 1992 and has been running annually since 1999. (It was not able to be carried out in 2020 because of Covid-19.) The Sanapshot is funded by the Ministry of Health as part of the New Zealand Youth Tobacco Monitor.

You can find factsheets from the ASH Year 10 Snapshot for the last few years. If you are interested in using the data for research or study, or would like data prior to the years published here, please contact [email protected]
