By the way, I fully understand if that's not within the scope of the survey.  I know it's more aimed at being a 'consumer research' style survey.

My suggestion would be;
Secondary school
College/further education
University

...Um, just to complete this. There may be a problem, some words do not have the same meaning in different languages and it can be confusing for some people trying to answer.
In France "enseignement secondaire" (which may seem a good translation of "secondary school") actually means everything between "école primaire" primary school (c.10-11 years old) and University. In France a "collège" is the first half of this, usually the first 4 years, the other 3 years before baccalauréat are known as "lycée". French wargamers willing to answer your survey, although knowing some English, may not understand this difference (I myself would not have if some computer game long ago had not asked me to build colleges and other educational buildings etc. on a Cuba-like island).

Interesting  8)

So maybe just a ‘catch all’ and have it as Further Education as an option after mandatory secondary school?

I've hit a brick wall on the question 'Where do you play your games?'

I've checked 'at a club' but that doesn't appear to be a valid answer and keeps returning the 'THIS QUESTION IS REQUIRED' error message.

did it again, and thanks again to Kawansary and Guy for doing this. I also struggled with some questions. Might I suggest that for future surveys it would be interesting to see what sector wargamers were working in (very broad I know, but government, education, health, IT, care, retail etc)

One question I would be interested to see would be about use of technology : in game and in prepping, how many use an airbrush, 3d printer, laminator even?

And done, another done and dusted.

Be interesting to see if spending continued upwards after the Covid lockdown and reopening.
