3.1.3. Acceptability and Programme Satisfaction
Test kits were collected by individuals or members of their household and almost all of the participants did not report any issues with drop off and collection procedures. More than three quarters of respondents (79.6%) indicated they were confident in the outcome of their COVID-19 test result. Indicators of acceptability are shown in Table 4 and Table 5. In general, students were highly satisfied with the information they received about the testing programme (97.5%) and how the information was communicated to them (89.2%). Respondents were satisfied with the approach to communicating positive test results, but over one-third were dissatisfied with receiving negative test results via a group email (e.g., indicating that all individuals who tested positive had been informed), rather than being told their negative result individually (the process in place during the pilot deployment).
