The report calls on policy makers to examine what works best for this age group and to initiate the necessary policy changes. Details: London: The Children's Society, 2010. 173p.

Author: National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC) Title: Child cruelty in the UK 2011: An NSPCC study into childhood abuse and neglect over the past 30 years Summary: The main aim of the study was to provide the NSPCC with an accurate estimate of the prevalence of child abuse and neglect, along with bullying and witnessing domestic violence in the UK. The study built on knowledge gained from an earlier survey undertaken by the NSPCC in 1998-99. By comparing the responses of today’s 18-24 year olds, we can see how child abuse and neglect has changed over the last 30 years, from when the respondents in the first study were born. And by looking at the experiences of 11-17 year olds, it gives us a fuller picture of what’s happening to children today. TNS-BMRB, the specialist social research division within TNS International, was commissioned to conduct the fieldwork interviews using computer-assisted self-interview techniques. The NSPCC research team designed the survey and completed all the data analysis. Fieldwork took place from 9 March to 15 November 2009; 1,761 interviews with young people aged 18-24 and 2,275 interviews with children aged 11-17 were undertaken. The survey was carried out across the UK with households randomly selected using postcode data. The sample was comparable to the general population. Care was taken to minimise any harm, offence or upset to children, young adults and parents. In exploring the childhood experiences of 11-17 year olds in greater depth, we looked specifically at the prevalence of severe forms of maltreatment which are likely to raise child protection concerns both among the public and professionals working with children.
