Combining expertise from backgrounds in early years, child health, mental health and education to name just a few, the ADR Wales Early Years research team brings together this knowledge to deliver well-rounded policy-informing research. This is needed to help all children - particularly those from deprived backgrounds.

ADR UK is funding six Research Fellows for 18 months to conduct research and analysis demonstrating the policy impact potential of ADR England flagship datasets. This was the first fellowship opportunity of its kind by ADR UK that...
ADR UK is funding two Research Fellows to conduct research using the newly available Ministry of Justice (MoJ) Data First family court – Cafcass linked dataset. Their research, taking place over 15 months, will generate new insights about children and families’ experiences of the family justice system.
The Department for Education’s Longitudinal Education Outcomes (LEO) dataset provides transformational insights about pathways within and beyond education in England. This grant will enable Dr Claire Crawford and a small team of researchers to work in partnership with the LEO Programme team in the Department for Education to help develop the LEO external access offer.
This ADR England project is funding the Department for Education (DfE) to make it easier and faster for accredited researchers to gain access to the data they need. The DfE will share more data through the ONS Secure Research Service using the legal gateway provided by the Digital Economy Act. The programme will also enable the DfE to engage with research bodies and academia around data opportunities and policy needs seeking to maximise the value of linked education data.
This ADR England-funded project will further develop a research-ready database linking health, education and social care data for all children in England.
Data First is an ambitious data-linking programme led by MoJ that aims to harness the potential of the wealth of data by linking administrative datasets from across the justice system and beyond.
In this pilot project, ADR Scotland worked in partnership with Children in Scotland to discuss with children what they believed administrative data was; whether children and young people felt that those people using their data, had engaged with them, to hear their opinions and to reassure them that their data was stored securely and their rights upheld. The feedback was that they didn’t feel that researchers and data controllers engaged with them nor wanted their opinions. Therefore, we discussed with the CYP whether they preferred written, verbal or visual communication, and hear their advice on what communication style would be more eye catching and engaging to children, such as podcasts or comics.
In this project, the team aims to create a research-ready dataset linking data held on children by local authorities, including education and social care, with data held by health services. This new resource will enable researchers to build evidence to support local and national strategies that improve outcomes for children.
This project aims to set up a new national data resource that will allow researchers to examine how local physical and social environments influence children’s health and schooling across England.
