The Home Office publish police recorded crime and outcomes open data on a quarterly basis but this does not provide a breakdown by the age of the suspect.

The Ministry of Justice and the Youth Justice Board publish statistics on young people (aged 10 to 17) receiving cautions and convictions at court and the latest statistics can be found here:
