GENERAL HISTORY SOCIAL HISTORY FAMILY HISTORY OCCUPATIONS ENVIRONMENT RELIGION MISCELLANEOUS Origins ORIGINS In prehistoric times, the natural place to settle would have been by the river Avon with its fertile holms and abundance of natural PRE-HISTORY resources. Evidence of early man can be found throughout the parish, enabling us to build a picture of how the community of Stonehouse developed over the centuries. The fact that a stone cist was found in the old kirk cemetery in 1937, confirms this site as a CASTLES place of pagan burial.

  • Prison Education in England and Wales. (2Nd Revised Edition)
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 388 842 CE 070 238 AUTHOR Ripley, Paul TITLE Prison Education in England and Wales. (2nd Revised Edition). Mendip Papers MP 022. INSTITUTION Staff Coll., Bristol (England). PUB DATE 93 NOTE 30p. AVAILABLE FROMStaff College, Coombe Lodge, Blagdon, Bristol BS18 6RG, England, United Kingdom (2.50 British pounds). PUB TYPE Information Analyses (070) EDRS PRICE MF01/PCO2 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Adult Basic Education; *Correctional Education; *Correctional Institutions; Correctional Rehabilitation; Criminals; *Educational History; Foreign Countries; Postsecondary Education; Prisoners; Prison Libraries; Rehabilitation Programs; Secondary Education; Vocational Rehabilitation IDENTIFIERS *England; *Wales ABSTRACT In response to prison disturbances in England and Wales in the late 1980s, the education program for prisoners was improved and more prisoners were given access to educational services. Although education is a relatively new phenomenon in the English and Welsh penal system, by the 20th century, education had become an integral part of prison life. It served partly as a control mechanism and partly for more altruistic needs. Until 1993 the management and delivery of education and training in prisons was carried out by local education authority staff. Since that time, the education responsibility has been contracted out to organizations such as the Staff College, other universities, and private training organizations. Various policy implications were resolved in order to allow these organizations to provide prison education. Today, prison education programs are probably the most comprehensive of any found in the country. They may range from literacy education to postgraduate study, with students ranging in age from 15 to over 65. The curriculum focuses on social and life skills.

This profile provides detailed information on total sickness-related benefit claimants (incapacity benefit, IB and Employment Support Allowance, ESA claimants) from 2000 to 2009, ESA claimants from 2009 and ESA claimants by medical condition for 2010 (broken down by age, duration of claim, stage of claim and ethnicity). 2. The profile contains data for Scotland, Glasgow City, North Lanarkshire, South Lanarkshire, East Dunbartonshire, East Renfrewshire, Inverclyde, Renfrewshire, West Dunbartonshire. 3. The percent of the working age population (WAP) claiming IB in Glasgow City decreased from 18.8% in 2000 to 14.4% by 2007. Following the introduction of ESA in October 2008, the WAP in receipt of total sickness-related benefit has continued to follow the general linear decline observed for IB but the rate is not falling as steeply. By 2009, 13.5% of the WAP in Glasgow were claiming sickness benefit compared to 9.1% in Scotland. Similar trends are observed in the other geographies. 4. The rate of on flow decreased in Scotland and Glasgow City prior to the introduction of ESA. From 2008 there have been small increases in IB/ESA on flow rates. By 2009, total sickness benefit was in excess of the level observed for 2005 with the rate of on flow currently at 3.9% in Glasgow.

    United Kingdom Immigration Detention Profile October 2016 • Introduction • Laws, Policies, Practices • Detention Infrastructure INTRODUCTION The United Kingdom has one of the largest immigration detention systems in Europe, confining up to 4,000 people—including children—in detention every day under Immigration Act powers.1 As of October 2016, the country’s immigration detention estate included nine “immigration removal centres” (IRCs) and a small number of residential immigration detention holding facilities.2 In addition, several hundred people are kept in prisons under Immigration Act powers awaiting deportation after having finished their criminal sentences.3 According to Home Office statistics, during the year ending in March 2016, 32,163 persons entered immigration detention, of whom 32,610 left detention and 2,925 remained in detention (these numbers do not include the 363 people held in the prison system under Immigration Act powers).4 There has been a marked increase in detention 1 The GDP would like to acknowledge the helpful comments it received from several external reviewers of early drafts of this profile. 2 In mid-2016, the government announced that it intended to close one of the nine IRCs (Dungavel) as well as the “pre-departure” family facility at Cedars. 3 For an overview of the UK detention estate, see Mary Bosworth, “Border Criminologies: Assessing the Changing Architecture of Crime and Punishment,” Global Detention Project Working Paper, February 2016, http://www.globaldetentionproject.org/publications/border-criminologies-assessing-changing- architecture-crime-and-punishment. 4 The Home Office explains on its detention statistics page that the figures “relate to the number of people entering, leaving or in detention, solely under Immigration Act powers, at immigration removal centres (IRCs), short-term holding facilities (STHFs) and pre-departure accommodation (PDA).” See Home Office, National Statistics – Detention, updated 3 March 2016, https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/immigration-statistics-january-to-march-2016/detention.

  • 14/01778/F Campsfield House: Immigration Removal Centre
    Campsfield House: Immigration 14/01778/F Removal Centre, Langford Lane, Kidlington Ward: Kidlington North District Councillor: Cllr Rose Cllr Williamson Case Officer: Paul Ihringer Recommendation: Approval Applicant: The Home Office and Ministry of Justice Application Description: Expansion of existing immigration removal centre to provide additional detainee accommodation, ancillary detainee and staff facilities, car parking, landscaping and internal fencing Committee Referral: Major and Departure from Policy Committee Date: 19th February 2015 1. Site Description and Proposed Development 1.1 Campsfield House is an Immigration Removal Centre (IRC) located on Kidlington’s northern boundary and just to the south of London Oxford Airport. It has functioned as such since 1993 having formerly been used as a youth detention centre. It has been operated by a private sector company, Mitie, since 2011 on behalf of the Home Office (HO) - the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) own the facility. 1.2 The site is accessed via a service road off Langford Lane. The service road is shared with South Central Ambulance Service which runs a resource centre and a HM Prison Service facility (Control and Restraint) which largely screen the IRC from Langford Lane. Another former access to the site is via Evenlode Crescent, a road parallel and to the west of the other access. Evenlode Crescent serves twenty-two residential properties, mainly semi-detached and most of which formerly housed workers at the youth detention centre. These properties are now in private ownership. The Crescent also serves the Cygnet Nursery. 1.3 The application site is located just inside the Oxford Green Belt. This is at odds with most of the rest of Kidlington which, although encircled by it, was excluded when the boundary lines of the Oxford Green Belt were ratified in the mid 1970s.
