Details
The Youth Justice Board (YJB) commissioned Traverse, an
independent research organisation, to conduct a research study to
examine what may be driving the disparity in rates of
reoffending.
The research involved statistical analysis of reoffending data
from England and Wales, interviews with children from England as
well as focus groups with youth justice service practitioners.
The findings are published in two parts, a child and
practitioners perspectives report and an analysis of reoffending
data report.
This publication includes:
- a child and practitioner perspectives report, including an
accessible version and a quick read guide
- an analysis of reoffending data, including an accessible
version
- a YJB analyst note
