Introduction• CYPP half year review identified 5 areas where
outcomes targets most at risk.• All partners contributed to review, areas agreed
by Integrated Strategic Commissioning Board:• Under 18 conception• Poor outcomes at Key Stage 3• Attendance and persistent absence• Numbers of Looked After Children (LAC)• Timeliness of Reviews for LAC
• Continuation of trend of a persistent cluster of poor outcomes for young people in Leeds
• Board request more information on ‘common factors’ underpinning these poor outcomes

Methodology
• Existing research• Data collection and matching of
cohorts• Analyse commonality of cohorts• Investigate common factors and
characteristics

National Research
• Risk Factors from Policy Review• No parent in family is in work• Family lives in poor quality or overcrowded
housing• No parent has any qualifications• Mother has mental health problems • At least one parent has long-standing
illness, disability or infirmity• Family has low income• Family cannot afford a number of food and
clothing items

Path to poor outcomes at Key Stage 4
![Page 8: Common risk factors for children, young people and families at risk of poor outcomes](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56814acd550346895db7e64f/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Common Factors• Free school meal eligibility• Residence in deprived areas• ACORN geodemographic data• School attendance• Exclusions from school• Previous attainment• Referrals to Social Care• Residence in Local Authority housing• Ethnicity• Special Education Needs
![Page 9: Common risk factors for children, young people and families at risk of poor outcomes](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56814acd550346895db7e64f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Common factors analysis 1: key points• Deprivation a factor in all poor outcomes
• FSM eligible two times more likely to achieve below level 5 in KS3, be persistent absent, be NEET
• Half of referrals to Social Care and 61% of LAC are in 10% most deprived areas
• Prior attainment• A third of young offenders and half of NEET
didn’t achieve level 4 in KS2• Those without level 4 in KS2 twice as likely to
be persistent absent or a become a teenage parent
![Page 10: Common risk factors for children, young people and families at risk of poor outcomes](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56814acd550346895db7e64f/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Common factors analysis 2: key points
• Attendance • A third of persistent absentees were
young offenders, 10% achieved 5+ A*-C (inc. English and maths)
• Housing and Social Care• Twice as likely to be persistent
absent, not achieve level 5 in KS 3• Third of teenage parents referred to
Social Care, 4 times more likely achieve no GCSEs

Combinations of factors (1)
• Gender, ethnicity, FSM eligibility• Key Stage 4 – lowest achievement
for Black Caribbean, Pakistani, White British and Other black boys that are eligible for FSM
• Persistent absence – white and mixed heritage girls eligible for FSM, Black Caribbean, Other Black, Bangladeshi and White British boys eligible for FSM

Next steps – using the findings
• Engaging partnership:• Reporting back to Board• Session with wider partnership• Disseminating analysis
• Informing the CYPP:• New emphasis, priorities and strategies in
CYPP
• Continuing the research:• Next phase to look at improving processes
for early identification of risk – assessment and data

Issues for data professionals• Data availability• Lots of factors not available at
individual level• Data protection• Link between adult and children’s
services
• Data quality• Data matching
