Parliamentary Survey

The Federal Parliament’s Joint Standing Committee on Electoral Matters is conducting a survey about civics and citizenship education in Australian schools. If you are a school student, an educator, or a recent school leaver, the Committee wants to hear from you! The survey will be open until the end of August.

• The survey is entirely voluntarily. This is clearly described in the preamble.
• The survey addresses no sensitive topics.
• No identifying data is being collected. Respondents are asked not to include any identifying information in free text responses.
• Respondents can discontinue the survey at any time and may choose ‘prefer not to answer’ to most questions.
• Young people are encouraged in the preamble to discuss the survey with a parent or guardian.
