    LBP0018 Written evidence submitted by The Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium Education Select Committee Left behind white pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds Inquiry SUBMISSION FROM THE NORTHERN POWERHOUSE EDUCATION CONSORTIUM Introduction and summary of recommendations Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium are a group of organisations with focus on education and disadvantage campaigning in the North of England, including SHINE, Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) and Tutor Trust. This is a joint submission to the inquiry, acting together as ‘The Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium’. We make the case that ethnicity is a major factor in the long term disadvantage gap, in particular white working class girls and boys. These issues are highly concentrated in left behind towns and the most deprived communities across the North of England. In the submission, we recommend strong actions for Government in particular: o New smart Opportunity Areas across the North of England. o An Emergency Pupil Premium distribution arrangement for 2020-21, including reform to better tackle long-term disadvantage. o A Catch-up Premium for the return to school. o Support to Northern Universities to provide additional temporary capacity for tutoring, including a key role for recent graduates and students to take part in accredited training. About the Organisations in our consortium SHINE (Support and Help IN Education) are a charity based in Leeds that help to raise the attainment of disadvantaged children across the Northern Powerhouse. Trustees include Lord Jim O’Neill, also a co-founder of SHINE, and Raksha Pattni. The Northern Powerhouse Partnership’s Education Committee works as part of the Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) focusing on the Education and Skills agenda in the North of England.

  • Hot Food Takeaway Supplementary Planning Document
    Hot Food Takeaway Supplementary Planning Document July 2016 Foreword The Council is committed to improving the Borough’s health and wellbeing. This commitment is reflected in Sandwell’s Scorecard, the Sandwell Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy, and the Hot Food Takeaway Supplementary Planning Document. This document aims to reduce the trends towards increasing levels of obesity and poor diet by tackling issues of over-concentration of Hot Food Takeaways (HFTs) and the exposure of particularly vulnerable groups, such as schoolchildren, to HFTs. The explosive growth of the fast-food sector over recent decades has had a significant influence over how and where we purchase our food. It has affected not only our diet but also agricultural systems, the processing and packaging industry and the nature and appearance of our towns and cities. Fast food outlets / Hot Food Takeaways (‘A5’ as a Planning Use Class classification) are now a common feature of our High Streets and fulfil an increasing demand for instant food access and convenience. Fast food preparation and supply is an important element in the economy and in some urban areas makes up a significant proportion of the retail offer. Where balanced with other types of retail this provides a service to the public, jobs and rental income. Where Takeaways occupy a disproportionately high percentage of the retail offer, there can however be negative effects. In particular the vitality and viability of a town may be damaged and retailers and shoppers discouraged. There is a need to balance the protection of the retail function of our centres and encouraging diversification of uses to keep them vital and viable.
