Table 2.
Summary of Likert scale responses provided by (a) children on the last night of camp, (b) children, aged 8 and above, six weeks post-camp and (c) parents/carers six weeks post-camp for both the younger children’s (YC) and older children’s (OC) camps. The results are given as the median (25th percentile, 75th percentile) for those reporting each score from 2010 to 2019; n = number of years and the interquartile range provides a measure of the spread of the data. The response rate for each question is also shown. The score scale ranges from 1, not at all, through to 7, very much and a median response of 1 or more is given in bold type. Post-camp data were not available for the younger children’s camp in 2010.
