Students' well-being
Some 23% of students reported being bullied at least a few times a month, on average across OECD countries.
Across OECD countries, the majority of students reported that they feel socially connected at school. For instance, three out of four students agreed or strongly agreed that they can make friends easily at school. On average across OECD countries, students reported 6.75 on the life-satisfaction scale. Some 67% of students reported that they are satisfied with their lives (students who reported between 7 and 10 on the life-satisfaction scale). Between 2015 and 2018, the share of satisfied students shrank by 5 percentage points.
Girls and disadvantaged students were less likely to report being satisfied with their lives than boys and advantaged students, respectively.
More than 80% of students reported sometimes or always feeling happy, cheerful, joyful or lively, and about 6% of students reported always feeling sad, on average across OECD countries.
On average across OECD countries, 84% of students agreed or strongly agreed that they can usually find a way out of difficult situations, and 56% agreed or strongly agreed that, when they fail, they worry about what others think about them. Concerns about students' mental health were at the forefront of countries' national recovery measures in the school year 2021/22. In 20 out of 29 countries with data available, extra psychological and socio-emotional support was provided for primary and secondary students due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Note: These values should be interpreted with care since they are influenced
by countries' specific contexts and trade-offs. In education, there is often no simple
most- or least-efficient model. For instance, the share of private expenditure in
education must be read against other measures designed to mitigate inequities,
such as loans and grants; longer learning time is an opportunity to convey
more and better content to students, but may hinder investments in other important
areas. If you want further information on the nature of different variables, please
take the time to read the analysis and contextual information, available at the website
for each publication.
The OECD average includes only OECD countries which are listed here: http://www.oecd.org/about/membersandpartners/
Reference years displayed in the Education GPS correspond to the most common year of reference among countries for which data is available on each variable. Data for the latest available year is preferred and some countries may have provided data refering to a more recent or late year. To know more about possible exceptions on data please click on the "Download Indicator" link on each variable. When a year of reference corresponds to a school year encompassing two years, the reference reads as follows: 2018 for school year 2017/2018.
*TALIS averages are based on all countries participating in the TALIS survey, including partner countries and economies. This explains the difference between the OECD average and the TALIS average. Data from the TALIS survey and Education at a Glance (EAG) may differ. See Annex E of the TALIS technical report and Annex 3 of EAG 2021 for more details about the data collections.
B-S-J-Z (China) refers to the four PISA-participating provinces/municipalities of the People's Republic of China: Beijing, Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang.
