Block 6 and Beyond ANNUAL PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT DATASET Southend-on-Sea Produced November 2007 Page 1 of 274 APA dataset guidance notes Revisions in the APA 2007 dataset. The following revisions have been made to data presented in the first (August) version of the dataset. 1002HC In the data definition section, the sub-heading read ‘Commentary on Bristol values:’ for all local authorities, so has been revised to ‘Commentary:’. The data and traffic lights were referring to the correct local authorities so are unchanged. 1044HC The second part of this indicator relates to 'Under 18s on adult wards that are 16 or 17'. This text was missing from the description for some local authorities but has now been added. 1043SC The bandings for some councils were previously increased by one band colour. They are now accurately coloured for all councils. The data is unchanged. 2022SC The bandings for all councils have now been uprated for 2006-07. The data is unchanged. 2037SC The denominator data has been revised to use section 47 data rather than conference data. The data may be revised downwards as a result. 2054SC The denominator data has been revised to exclude all the children listed in the definition. The data may be revised upwards very slightly as a result. 2066SC The denominator data has been revised to omit the unborn. The data may be revised upwards very slightly as a result. 3035OF The statistical neighbours traffic lights for authorised and unauthorised absences were incorrectly based on the ‘old’ Ofsted statistical neighbours. They are now correctly based on the ‘new’ NFER statistical neighbours. The local authority and statistical neighbour data itself is unchanged. 3073SC The numerator data has been revised to include data provided to CSCI up to 2005-06. 3092DE The national traffic lights for 2005 and 2006 had not been applied so showed as white/'in line' for all local authorities. They have now been applied so will now be coloured for some local authorities. The data itself is unchanged. 5022SC The graph title now matches the performance indicator title. The data is unchanged. 5041DE} 5042DE} 5043DE} Data was incorrectly labelled as 03-04, 04-05 and 05-06, and has now been revised to 04-05, 05- 5044DE} 06, 06-07. The data itself is unchanged. 5045DE} 5046DE} 6003SC The numerator data has been revised so that all councils have their correct data. Data for some councils will have changed as a result. 6005SC The numerator data has been revised so that all councils have their correct data. Data for some councils will have changed as a result. 6024SC Councils are now all in their correct ACA groups and are correctly banded. 6049DE The statistical neighbours data were based on the old Ofsted groupings and have now been amended to the new NFER groupings. Page 2 of 274 Statistical Neighbours Statistical neighbour groups help to benchmark local authorities’ performance, and provide an initial guide as to whether it is above or below the level that might be expected. Some of the statistical neighbour groups used in this year's datasets have altered from those used in last years’ APA and in JAR toolkits prior to block 16. The NFER's Children's Services statistical neighbour groups were published in February 2007 and are designed to be used across all children's services data. They replace the old Ofsted and CIPFA groups for education and social care indicators. The new NFER groups are used on the majority of indicators in this dataset; key exceptions being indicators from the Healthcare Commission, Youth Justice Board and HMI Probation, where data may not be at local authority level. Please refer to appendices 1, 2 and 3. Traffic Lights and bandings On a number of indicators, traffic lights are used to highlight strong or poor performance. For data on educational attainment and absences the traffic lights show differences between the authority and its statistical neighbours, as well as between the authority and the national figure. For this reason the shading is applied to the neighbours’ and national figures rather than the figures for the authority itself. On social care Performance Assessment Framework indicators, shading is applied to the local authority, neighbours and national figures, as the bandings are based on cut-off points, not relative position. Please refer to individual indicators and contact the relevant inspectorate for further information if required. Social care data Some of the social care data in this year's APA datasets may differ to that in previous years’ APA datasets. This is because the majority of data is now sourced from central data collections run by the Department for Children Schools and Families (DCSF) and The Information Centre for health and social care (IC); rather than from CSCI's data collection. The national and statistical neighbour figures are produced by summing the numerators and denominators for each authority to produce the indicator score. This brings the methodology into line with that used in most Ofsted, DCSF and PAF publications. As CSCI’s APA collection, however, only collected data at indicator level, the national figures used in previous year’s APA datasets were produced by averaging the indicator scores for all the authorities. This change in methodology has affected some national figures, with most changes resulting in lower figures than presented in earlier datasets. The exception to this is the set of nine indicators that Ofsted collected directly from local authorities in June 2007. As the old years’ data for these is taken from the indicator level data collected by CSCI during previous APAs, Ofsted collected the 2006/07 data in the same way. The statistical neighbour and national figures therefore continue to be averages of the authorities’ indicator scores. The 2006/07 child protection data in the second and third versions of the dataset are second cut data from the DCSF’s CPR3 data collection. This data has not altered from the first cut of CPR3 data used in version one of the APA dataset, except for the revisions highlighted at the start of these guidance notes. Statistical neighbour and England comparisons are included in this version. The 2006-07 data on looked after children in this, third, version is from the DCSF’s SSDA903 collection. Again, comparative data are included in this version. The 2006-07 data on finance and staffing is taken from The IC’s PSS EX1 and SSDS001 collections (6050SC only) is included in this version. Comparative data is also included. Please contact the team at [email protected] if you have any queries.

  • AN INVESTIGATION INTO the CUL TURE(S) of the METROPOLITAN POLICE FORCE BETWEEN the 1930S and the 1960S
    AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE CUL TURE(S) OF THE METROPOLITAN POLICE FORCE BETWEEN THE 1930s AND THE 1960s A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Thomas William Cockcroft Department of Law, Brunei University August 2001 Acknowledgements Thanks to the following people for their help, support, advice and encouragement over the last few years; Keith Cockcroft, Graham Cockcroft, Jane Hopkins, Arthur Hopkins, Ged Denton, Ulanda Taylor, Kieran Heneghan, Keith Barton, Jane Woolfenden, Mark Bartholomew, Graeme Clarke, Rachel Leigh Carter, Betsy Stanko, Sharon Cowan I would also like to thank Dr Robert Perks of the National Sound Archive for his help. The research would not have been possible without the co-operation of the 26 retired officers who agreed to take part in this research. Many thanks to all of you. The following people also deserve medals; Phil Rawlings, Jenny Deiches, Fiona Brookman ABSTRACT The majority of published work in the area of police occupational culture follows the methodological template of Skolnick (1994) which utilises both participant observation and the interview. The way in which this approach has been used has proved problematic for a number of reasons. First, it has promoted a view that police occupational culture is static and unchanging. Second, it has failed to acknowledge that officers have a choice whether or not to engage in certain behaviours. Third, it has promoted a view that police officers display essentially negative behaviours. The aim of the present research was to investigate, by means of techniques drawn from oral history, the culture or cultures of police officers within the Metropolitan Police Force in London between the 1930s and the 1960s.

  • Candidates East of England Region
    Page | 1 LIBERAL/LIBERAL DEMOCRAT CANDIDATES IN THE EAST OF ENGLAND REGION 1945-2015 Constituencies in the counties of Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Huntingdonshire, Norfolk, Suffolk, together with Peterborough INCLUDING SDP CANDIDATES in the GENERAL ELECTIONS of 1983 and 1987 PREFACE Several constituencies, formerly wholly or in Part in Essex and Hertfordshire, have been included in the Greater London Index. A further Problem encountered in the compilation of this Index has been the number of changes of names of constituencies over the years. In addition, no less than 40 of the candidates listed have fought constituencies in up to five regions of Britain. Though there have been no pockets of constituencies, as there have been in more industrialised regions, which the party failed to contest over the early Post war Period, a number of individual constituencies were neglected for many years. Some of these had a history of Liberal National allegiance from the 1930s. For the first four or five General Elections Post World War II, from 1945 to 1955, the Liberals avoided contesting such constituencies. As with other regions, a number of personalities and eminent party figures are afforded extended entries. Page | 2 THE MARTELL PLAN The Martell Plan, mentioned in passing throughout the regional directories was the electoral strategy adoPted by the Liberal Party for the General Election of 1950. It was first named after Edward Martell qv (Greater London), a party ‘grandee’ of the immediate post-war years who advocated the nomination of over 150 additional candidates in constituencies which had little or no Liberal organization nor history of Liberal activity in recent years.

  • The Documentary Handbook
    The Documentary Handbook The Documentary Handbook takes a thematic approach to documentary, including chapters on the many myriad forms we watch today – from the cinematic releases of Michael Moore to low-budget internet efforts like Video Nation, from ‘shock docs’ to reality television. The Documentary Handbook is a critical introduction to the documentary film, its theory and changing practices. The book charts the evolution of the documentary from screen art to core television genre, its metamorphosis into many different types of factual TV programmes and its current emergence in forms of new media. It analyses those pathways and the transformation of means of production through economic, technical and editorial changes. The Documentary Handbook explains the documentary process, skills and job specifica- tions for everyone from industry entrants to senior personnel, and shows how the industrial evolution of television has relocated the powers and principles of decision-making. Through the use of professional ‘expert briefings’ it gives practical pointers about programme- making, from researching, developing and pitching programme ideas to their production and delivery through a fast-evolving multi-platform universe. Peter Lee-Wright is a documentary filmmaker with 30 years’ experience working for the BBC and Channel 4. He is currently Senior Lecturer in Media and Communications at Goldsmiths, University of London. His most recent writing includes critical overviews of sports documentary and trade union documentary in Encyclopedia of the Documentary Film (2005) and analysis of the changes taking place in multimedia news, notably in New Media, Old News (edited by Natalie Fenton, 2009). Media Practice Edited by James Curran, Goldsmiths, University of London The Media Practice handbooks are comprehensive resource books for students of media and journalism, and for anyone planning a career as a media professional.
