Comparisons
Children referred to the Scottish Children's Reporter Administration in Glasgow and Scotland
The Glasgow and national percentages of children referred to the Scottish Children's Reporter Administration (SCRA) follow a similar pattern over the time period from 2003/04 to 2019/20. The percentage of children referred gradually increased until 2006/07, after which it decreased and has remained relatively stable since 2014/15. Except for 2017/18, Glasgow had a consistently higher percentage of referrals to SCRA than Scotland as a whole.
Notes
It should be noted that the referral levels in different local authorities are impacted by pre-referral screening and the implementation of "Getting it Right for Every Child".
