Outline of the session
• At risk behaviours what's the evidence?
• Local context North Bournemouth example
• Teenage pregnancy Context
• Local overview
• Discussions
3
Risk taking Behavioursset the Scene
• Consistency in the relationship between features of early parental care and child intellectual, behavioural and emotional outcomes.
• Responsive care in early months of a child life is important ( communication, interpretation, response, infant
attachment). For the child to display signs of a secure infant, exhibiting better behavioural and emotional adjustment later in life
Kitzman et al (2007)

AFFECT
• A behavioural expression of emotional regulation, a set of processes to manage expression and accomplish goals
• AFFECT last to mature in development
• All ‘gas no breaks’
• Increase risk of adverse health outcomes
5
Review of AFFECT • Childhood adversities and effect on psychological
disorders – low specificity, limited evidence • Nurse family partnership, targeting mother infant bond to
affect AFFECT later on – Strongest evidence for nurses in family homes –study of limited quality and a service rather than intervention
• Incredible years programme – parent teacher and social training components – strong evidence of expected change in evaluation
6
Review of AFFECT• Aban Aya youth project , ‘stop think act
technique’ –evidence to reduce risk in that cohort, not transferable to other population groups
• Home visit programmes – no clear conclusion• Positive parenting – multi level with universal,
selective components target parent child relations and reduced emotional symptoms and parent stress – some evidence of effectiveness
7
Teenage pregnancy and social disadvantage
• What known- sex education alone does not reduce TP rates needs to be a whole system approach
• Systematic review adds – childhood intervention/youth development programmes and structural level measures to tackle social disadvantage can lower TP rates.
• Improve enjoyment of schools, raise expectations, ambitions for future.
• Policy move to compliment school ethos with sex education and sexual health services in targeted areas
• School ethos development for aspirations and ambitions
9
National Teenage Pregnancy Drive
• No-one should wait for national directives as there won’t be any at this stage.
• Local champions should be very active in maintaining core teenage pregnancy work.
• Teenage pregnancy work represents value for money.• Teenage pregnancy prevention will be vital in reducing
health inequalities and child poverty, addressing the coalition government’s priorities
• Ofsted has called for improvements in PSHE. A report• released on 23 July 2010 said the quality of PSHE
teaching was ‘variable’
10
The Economic Argument
• Cross organisational issue • The cost of Teenage Pregnancy
to the NHS alone is estimated to be £63m a year
• Benefit payments to a teenage mother can total £25000 in the three years following birth
• This can continue long term• Every £ spent on the strategy
saves approximately £4 to the public purse
11
The Current Picture Locally
• Recent annual figures showed that since the baseline figure in 1998 the Teenage Pregnancy rate in Bournemouth has fallen by 25.3 per 1000- a greater reduction than the national figures of 13.3 per 1000
