Child Stakeholders
Children between the ages of 4 – 12/13 years are participating as CSL advisers through our Child Advisory Panel. These children are helping to inform the questionnaire design and the work of our case study school, letting us know the issues that are most important for us to capture.
If you would like to become involved please let us know by contacting csl@ucd.ie

The CSL study uses a cross- sequential longitudinal design, producing a rich
set of mixed methods data. This is generated through a nationally representative quantitative study and in-depth case studies of a sub-sample of schools.
The Children’s School Lives Study has been approved by the University College Dublin Human Research Ethics Committee.
International experts in specific areas of research design and researching with children are involved in advising the CSL team on their study methods.
