Key statistics

This section contains links to key statistics that are of particular relevance to the children's workforce.

It draws together the latest information available from a variety of government departments to provide practitioners with easy access to current statistics in their area of expertise.

The section is continually updated; however, if you're unable to find what you're looking for on this site, you may wish to visit the DCSF research website (which appears first in the bulleted list below). This provides a comprehensive database of research and statistics relevant to practitioners working with children, schools and families. There is also a useful search tool where you can narrow your search by keywords, free text and status.

The majority of the information in this section has been drawn from the following websites:

• DCSF: Programme of research
• DCSF, and Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS): Research Gateway
• Department for Work and Pensions (DWP): Research 
• Communities and Local Government: Research and statistics 
• Department of Health (DH): Research and development
