The survey looks at those forms of gambling and gambling style games that children and young people legally take part in along with gambling on age restricted products. The research was conducted using Ipsos MORI’s Young People Omnibus, a representative online survey of pupils attending academies and maintained schools in England, Scotland and Wales (excluding fee-paying and other establishments covering 11-16 year olds). In total 2,943 11-16 year olds participated in the research across 124 schools. Data have been weighted to the known profile of the population, in order to provide a representative sample.<br>
