The Big Ambition
15 September 2023
The Children’s Commissioner for England, Dame Rachel de Souza, has launched The Big Ambition to hear directly from children, young people, and parents from across the country.
They want to hear from children and young people about their schools, communities, family life, and the wider world. They will also be asked what they want for their future, their hopes, dreams, and aspirations.
The Big Ambition survey is for all children and young people aged 6, up to 18. Alongside this, parents and other adults can complete the survey on behalf of children and young people aged 0, up to 5, to ensure we also hear from early years settings. It is critical that the voice of children from all backgrounds, all settings, and every part of the country is heard by policy makers. They are particularly committed to hearing from children who may be more vulnerable, including those in care.
