It contains the new priorities and suggestions agreed by the Tipton Employment and Skills Panel workshop, which convened in February 2010. 1.1. Name of Neighbourhood/Ward Covered Princes End ward is one of three wards in Tipton Town, in the Northwest of the borough. For the purposes of this plan, the pre-2004 ward boundary has been used, because this is the area that has been used in the calculation of the Sandwell Local Area Agreement (LAA) ward targets. Further, the analysis undertaken to identify priority wards across the borough was based on data for pre-2004 ward boundaries. Most official economic data is also based on these boundaries. Fig. 1: Tipton Town’s Ward Boundaries with Princes End Ward Highlighted 1.2. Vision and Purpose The City Region Employment and Skills Multi Area Agreement’s purpose is to provide a single Employment and Skills Plan for each priority ward, bringing together the work of the local authority, JobCentre Plus (JCP), the Skill Funding Agency (SFA); and the Young People Learning Agency (YPLA). The aim is to equip local people with the necessary skills and competencies for sustainable employment and to provide employers with an adequate supply of labour to meet their current and future skill needs. 4 Final 30th June 2010 1.3. Relevant Local Group The Employment and Skills Panel is responsible for managing the delivery and scrutiny of the NESPs. This entails consultation with partners and the local community, providing a forum for examining delivery. There is a clear report back mechanism on the progress via the Economic Regeneration and Skills Division so that groups can see that their views are taken into account and acted upon. Where delivery gaps occur the Sandwell Partnership will take responsibility for overcoming them. 2. Analysis of Need in the Neighbourhood 2.1. Labour Demand – Employment Opportunities The number of jobs within the ward is fairly low as Princes End is a largely residential area. This means that the majority of the residents need to travel to work opportunities. Figure 2 shows that employment in the ward is slightly higher among women in part-time employment compared with the borough average and lower among men in full-time employment. Overall full-time employment is lower than the borough average while part-time employment is higher.

Significantly, although the data shows employment opportunities within the ward, it should be noted that the area within which the ward’s residents work will be much wider than this (for further information see Travel to Work section). 5 Final 30th June 2010 Fig. 3: Industry of Employees 2008 Workplace employee numbers by industry (Quartiles, 1 = highest numbers of employees across each industry and 4 the lowest) Abbey Blackheath Bristnall Charlemont Cradley Heath Old and Hill Park Friar Great Barr Great Bridge Greets GreenLyngand Heath Hateley Langley Newton Old Warley Oldbury Princes End Rowley Smethwick Victoria and Soho Pauls St. Green Tipton Tividale North Wednesbury Wednesbury South Central Bromwich West Manufacturing 334314421234412331124212 Construction 314423311423324241114322 Distribution, hotels and restaurants 3 2 4 3 2 4 4 1 3 4 2 4 3 1 2 3 3 2 1 2 4 1 1 1 Transport and communications 324432411334414232113212 Banking, finance and insurance, etc 3 2 4 4 1 4 3 1 2 3 3 4 1 1 4 3 3 1 2 2 4 2 2 1 Public administration,education & health 4 2 3 4 2 3 4 2 1 2 2 4 4 1 3 4 3 1 1 1 3 2 3 1 Other services 214221332334413424214311 Source: ABI 2008/NOMIS Some values suppressed due to confidentiality restrictions (Statistics of Trade Act 1947). Quartiles positions are provided to protect confidential data. Figure 4 shows that the industries employing the greatest numbers of residents in 2001 were ‘Manufacturing’ and ‘Wholesale, retail and repair of motor vehicles’ both of which employ higher proportions than Sandwell as a whole. (Please note that Figure 4 relates to the industry in which Princes End residents work, as opposed to Figures 2 and 3, which relate to employment in workplaces based within the ward.)

It can represent an individual’s inability to find employment 6 Final 30th June 2010 opportunities in the area. However, current government policy is based on the premise that economic activity contributes to overall output of the local economy and that a locality with a low level of economic activity is not fulfilling its full potential. Information and data on this aspect of formal economic activity is difficult to obtain at (ward) level and estimates as to the size of Sandwell’s informal economy remain as elusive as ever. At this time it is unclear as to how throughput data in relation to enterprise support is to be obtained as the region’s new Business Link delivery model is not yet up and running. The 2001 Census of Population shows Princes End to have 312 people in self-employment, or 4% of the 16-59/64 year old population, below the Sandwell and national figures of 5.2% and 9% respectively. Key Employers in Area Princes End is largely a residential ward, some of the main employers in surrounding wards are: Laird Security Hardware Limited, Bloomfield Park Industrial Estate, Great Bridge Sigmacast Iron Limited, Upper Church Lane, Tipton Asda, Great Bridge Red Mill Snack Foods Ltd, Globe Street, Wednesbury Tulip Fresh Meats Ltd, George Henry Road, Wednesbury New Business Starts Information from BankSearch Consultancy, which records new business bank accounts, gives an idea of the number of new business starts in an area. The data suggests there were approximately 52 new business starts in Tipton Green in 2009. This is relatively low, ranking 23rd out of all Sandwell wards.

Tipton is generally losing employment land to housing.

  • (JSNA) for Children and Young People Aged 5-19 Years Old
    Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) for children and young people aged 5-19 years old Public Health Department Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council Executive summary Sandwell borough has a population of over 300,000 people, approximately 20% of whom are aged five to nineteen years old. In the decade since 2004, there was an increase in younger residents, with the number of 5-19 year olds increasing by 4.9% (2,853 persons). By the year 2026 the population of 5-19 year olds in Sandwell is projected to increase by 15.3% to 70,546 persons. Sandwell has some of the highest levels of deprivation in the country and children and young people are particularly affected; indicators of child poverty in Sandwell are worse than the overall measurements of deprivation for the borough. It is important to focus on younger people in order to tackle inter-generational worklessness, dependence on low-paid employment, and poverty as these conditions affect many families living in Sandwell. Many Sandwell residents suffer poor health outcomes, with people living more than ten years longer in poor health compared to the national average. In order to tackle the causes of ill-health in Sandwell in the long term, it is important to focus on our children and young people by supporting them to adopt healthier lifestyles at an early age, and by creating a safe, healthy environment in which they can live and thrive. This JSNA looks at seven areas which impact on the health and wellbeing of 5-19 year olds, as agreed by local stakeholder engagement.
