Children's data (formerly Kent Children's Trust)
Research & Evaluation are now hosting some
of the data relating to children, that was previously published by
the Kent Children’s Trust. Not all the information has been
transferred, just the key datasets. This information will be
added to, in the future.
Children and Young People's Plan
(CYPP) Needs Assessment
Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) for Children in
Kent 2011: Health, Wellbeing and Healthy Public Policy
Within the changing environment of children's services and
public health, the place of the strategic needs assessment is
clear. The public health White Paper, 'Healthy Lives, Healthy
People' (2010), and the National Service Framework for Children,
are concerned with standards of care in order that children's
services are fit for purpose. This strategic needs assessment is
required in order to identify issues requiring future investment
grounded upon the identification of local issues. It
should also identify other change issues necessary to advance
improvements in the health and welfare of children and young
people.
The
2011 Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) is
published by the Kent and Medway Public Health Observatory.
Children's Performance Indicators
The children’s performance indicators
contain district level scores for 31 indicators relating to the
health and wellbeing of children. Comparison data for
2006/07 and 2007/08 as well as 2009/10 is presented in the childrens indicator

The Kent CYPP Children’s Survey 2010 (by district

This data contains summary information
drawn from the 2010 Children’s survey and is presented in a number
of Excel files, by District, by Primary and Secondary school and by
home and school-based results. A summary report,
technical report and the full survey results for each local
authority district are presented in the Children and Young people of Kent survey

Children in
poverty
Using the child poverty measure as set
out by the Child Poverty Act 2010 we are able to look at the
number of children living in poverty. Figures for the Kent County
Council area and the local authority districts as at August
2009 compared with the South East and England as a whole are
presented in
Children in poverty - 2009, (PDF, 516k).
