Headline Indicators for Children's Health

The Children's Headline Indicator dynamic data from AIHW provides the latest available information on how Australia's children aged 0-12 are faring according to 19 priority areas. These areas include health status, risk and protective factors, early learning and care, and family and community environments.
Indicators include: 
  • Child abuse and neglect - updated (data for 2012-13 added)
  • Early childhood education - updated (data for 2013 Indigenous status, Remoteness and socioeconomic status added)
  • Immunisation - updated (data for the quarter ending 30 September 2013 added)
  • Injuries - revised (rates recalculated using Estimates of Australia's resident population based on the 2011 Census)
  • Teenage births - revised ('Total' birth rate and the disaggregation by Indigenous status rates have been recalculated using Estimates of Australia's resident population based on the 2011 Census).
