Footnotes

  1. Data for the years ending 31 March 2021 and 2022 is not available for Hackney local authority, therefore 2020 data for Hackney has been included in the 2021 and 2022 national totals and regional totals. Data for the year ending 31 March 2024 is not available for Hampshire local authority, therefore 2023 data for Hampshire has been included in the 2024 national and regional totals. Refer to the methodology page for more information.
  2. Figures exclude the category 'no factors identified'.
  3. Information on child on child and adult on child physical and sexual abuse was collected and reported on for the first time in 2021. Previously physical abuse and sexual abuse was collected and reported on (irrespective of whether it was child on child or adult on child) and some local authorities provided information on the old basis only, or a mixture of the old and new basis, between 2021 and 2024. The old physical and sexual abuse categories have therefore continued to be included since 2021 to provide a more complete account of this category of assessment.
