Abstract

This report presents the main findings of the Nottingham City Survey of Children and Young People. It extends from The 2014 Report on Children’s Well-being: Bilborough, Nottingham, and provides a unique insight into the lives of children and young people living in Nottingham City as a whole. Over 3,500 children and young people from 13 primary schools, 8 secondary schools, and 1 special school took part in the Nottingham City survey in the summer of 2015. The survey covered key aspects of children’s lives, from feelings about their life as a whole, relationships with family and friends, and perspectives on their school and local area. The questions we asked were taken from a larger survey on children’s well-being, developed and validated by The Children’s Society and the University of York. We provide comparisons between different groups of children and young people within Nottingham City (particularly primary and secondary school aged children, and boys and girls). Where possible, we compare the main findings of the survey with the national picture for the U.K. The survey was complemented by face-to-face consultations with children and young people on key themes which emerged from the initial survey findings. 470 children and young people from 4 primary and 6 secondary schools took part in the consultation process. In this report, we provide examples of children and young people’s own views and opinions, expressed through various consultation exercises. These examples provide further insight into children’s experiences in Nottingham City. This report highlights the aspects of life where children and young people in Nottingham are doing well, as well as aspects where they are not doing so well, in order to identify potential local priorities for improving well-being.
