The Toddler Development Instrument (TDI) is a questionnaire for parents/caregivers of 12-24-month-olds, focusing on early experiences and environments. Accessible online or on paper, it’s distributed in various early years services but is currently in the Pilot phase with no public reports or maps available.

TDI Reports

No reports currrently available.

CHEQ School District and neighbourhood level reports are only accessible for districts in the 2024-2025 data collection. Keep in mind, some reports may be suppressed in these districts.

Suppression occurs when coverage of the population is low or the population size of an area is very small. More specifically, data are suppressed when there are fewer than 35 children in a school district or neighbourhood for confidentiality reasons. The data are also suppressed when the uncertainty of the results (i.e., margin of error) is greater than 10%, which can result from low coverage particularly in areas with small populations.

The YDI is an annual online questionnaire gathering vital youth development data in British Columbia. Developed by Dr. Hasina Samji and the SFU CHART Lab, it’s expanding to more school districts. Over 26,000 BC youths have participated since its 2020 pilot. Explore the project and resources at the Capturing Health and Resiliency Trajectories (CHART) Lab.
