Youth Justice. The information contained in table 9 below has been sourced from Juvenile Justice in Australia 2009-10, released in October 2011. Nationally the average length of time spent under supervision during 2009–10 was 6 months, and young people spent 3 times as long under community-based supervision as in detention (almost 6 months under community-based supervision compared with 2 months in detention). Among the states and territories (excluding Western Australia and the Northern Territory), the average length of time spent under supervision ranged from 5 months in the Australian Capital Territory to 7 months in Tasmania. Aboriginal and Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Islander young people spent more time under supervision than non- Indigenous young people, especially in detention. Aboriginal and Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Islander young people spent 2.5 more weeks in detention during the year than non-Indigenous young people, but just 4 more days, on average, under community-based supervision. At the time of preparing this Report Card, AIHW had not published the 2011-12 Juvenile Justice Report.

Youth Justice. While the number of children and young people referred to the Children’s Reporter is reducing, there is a proportionate rise in children being effectively supported through children’s services on a voluntary basis, with around 60% of support from social work staff being provided without the need for compulsory measures. Looked after and accommodated young people: Over recent years, there has been a reduction in the number of young people placed in residential schools and secure accommodation. Numbers of young people in residential settings have almost halved from a figure of 29 in 2009 to 16 in 2011, highlighting a reduction in the need for the most intensive residential support on a sustained basis. In conjunction with this, a higher proportion of children looked after away from home are living with friends or relatives. Educational achievement and attainment: The Council has identified as a key priority the need to tackle underachievement particularly at Scottish Curriculum Qualifications Framework (SCQF) levels 4, 5 and 6. Attainment has risen both in S4 (at SCQF level 5) and in S6 (at SCQF level 6) but did not improve in S5 (at SCQF level 6). Attainment at SCQF level 7 increased to its highest level and attainment at SCQF level 3 continued to be higher than the national average. The percentage of school leavers moving into a positive destination has improved steadily over the past three years and is now above the national average. Improving life chances of children and young people: West Dunbartonshire Council and its partners continue to evidence commendable progress in a number of key performance areas thereby improving the life chances of our children and young people, through universal and targeted support to children and families. The evident progress across such a wide variety of areas provides a strong foundation upon which to consolidate the accomplishments to date of children’s services, with strong multi-agency working providing the most effective model of service delivery. The key achievements over the last few years are as follows: • a strong record of positive inspection reports from our schools and Early Education Child Care Centres (EECC), Children’s Units and Through Care Team; • three new secondary schools were delivered and opened to pupils in August 2009. These were followed by a primary school with an EECC, and by a further two primary schools. The new Dumbarton Academy is expected to open in 2012-2013; • the impressive reduction ea...

Youth Justice. In 2020-21 the daily average number of young people in custody in AYDC was eight ((ROGS), 2022). It should be noted there have been increases in AYDC above the daily average with the number in custody increasing up to 19 in 2023. Most of these young people would be assessed as high or very high need. However, a significant number of these young people would not be in custody if they had a safe and acceptable accommodation option. The number of young people involved with Youth Justice who are homeless or risk of homelessness is not recorded in current data collections. It is important to acknowledge that it is not only homeless young people who need access to accommodation and supported accommodation. For many young people their current living situations can be unstable, unaffordable, or unsupportive.
