Executive Summary The Childcare Act 2006 gives the Local Authority a key role in shaping the childcare market and the Isle of Wight County Council has been committed to working with providers from the Private, Voluntary and Independent Sectors (PVI) and the maintained sector, to create a strong, sustainable and diverse childcare market that meets the needs of parents/carers. Local Authorities are required under the Act; Section 6 to ensure that there is sufficient, quality, flexible, sustainable childcare and for parents and carers. The Act also places a duty on the local authority to report on the sufficiency and provision of early year’s education. This assessment analyses the demographic and population data available and provides an up-date on the authorities’ current ability to meet its sufficiency duty and considers the impact legislative changes are having on the demand for childcare. The assessment confirms that provision of Early Years and Childcare on the Isle of Wight is flexible and reflects changing need in relation to the continued social economic profile. Key findings are: a) The childcare market across the Isle of Wight has increased by 353 places since the 2011 Childcare Sufficiency assessment with the number of Day-care providers’ remaining relatively stable and sustainable within the three locality areas. Although fluctuation has occurred within the sector with day-care provisions changing registration status the average number of day care provision providing Early Years funded placements on the Island has remained comparable during and since the school re-organisation process. b) The 'Mid 2013 population estimate' shows the population of children across the Isle of Wight 0-4 have increased by 2.2 % since 2012 estimate. Population estimates indicate the 0-4 population reaches its peak in 2016 declines steadily until 2033 when it begins to increase. Live Birth data is currently lower than population estimates. c) The proportion of pensioners on the Isle of Wight remains higher than other parts of the county according to the latest (Census Mid estimate 2013), and is estimated to continue to grow. d) Capacity growth against predicted 0-4 population statistics would indicate that overall sufficient places are available to cover expected growth. However, capacity may become an issue when the governments’ plans to introduce 30 hours of provision for working parents are implemented by 2017. The Local authority would be heavily reliant on schools and the Private and Voluntary sector to expand their services to cover early year’s age range or the PVI sector expanding their businesses. Currently it is not possible to estimate additional demand as the 30 hour offer has not yet been defined. However we are aware that parents are not traditionally taking up their full entitlement, therefore future exploration for reasons behind low take up will take place. e) The assessment has identified, one local town within the North East Locality as providing insufficient early education places within local vicinity, although sufficient 4 CHILDCARE SUFFICIENCY REPORT – Select Committee – July 16th 2015 places are available within the Early Help locality, these are not within walking distance of parents. Plans are in place to address this issue and Capital funding agreed. f) During the last twelve months 2 year old capacity has increased with 350 new childcare places being developed through the Government’s incentive capital grant funding to accommodate the overall demand across the Island. g) The number of 2 year olds accessing Early Years Education Entitlement has increased, and currently stands at 71.5%, against the latest Department of Work & Pension eligibility figures, higher than the National average 62.6% and the South East region average of 67.5%. £10,000 has been allocated to continue the marketing programme to augment take-up. This includes: i. Island wide Radio Campaign ii. Information Posters/Leaflets & Business cards iii. Facebook iv. Local Media – adverts in Rainbow Directory/Beacon/County Press [inclusive of web-tile links on associated sites] v. Webpage vi. Direct targeting of parents on DWP lists - In the meantime, brokerage of places is supported through the Family Information Service. - The overall quality of early year’s providers is being maintained 87% being rated by Ofsted as Good or Outstanding. - The availability of childcare places has increased over the last twelve months with further capacity expected by January 2016. - The number of childminders offering funded placements has increased by 80% over the last twelve months. h) The Isle of Wight is also actively increasing awareness of both the funding entitlement of three and four year olds. This is being achieved through the Early Years Sufficiency team, the Family Information Zone, Health visitors, Barnardo’s Early Help Centres, local authority website, radio campaign and providers raising parental awareness. i) Further analysis of the childcare market planned will continue to ensure demand continue to meet needs. 5 CHILDCARE SUFFICIENCY REPORT – Select Committee – July 16th 2015 2. Introduction 2.1.1 To report to the Isle of Wight Select Committee on the outcomes of the Childcare Sufficiency Assessment 2014 – 2015, including the finding from consultation with parents/carers. 2.1.2 The Childcare Act 2006 requires local authorities to improve outcomes for all young children, reduce inequalities and ensure there is sufficient high quality early ears provision and childcare meets needs. 2.1.3 From April 2008, section 6 of the Childcare Act placed a duty on Local authorities to secure sufficient childcare, so far as reasonably; to enable parents/carers to access employment or training. Section 11 provides a duty for Local authorities to assess The supply and demand for childcare and develop a strategy that meets identified needs. 2.1.4 Under new statutory guidance (September 2013) Local authorities are no longer required to present their sufficiency assessment to the Secretary of State, but are required to report annually to elect council members on how they are meeting their duty to secure sufficient childcare and make this report available and accessible to parents. 2.1.5 Local authorities are responsible for determining the appropriate level of detail in their report, geographical division and date of publication. The Isle of Wight Council published its last Childcare Sufficiency Assessment in 2010 and undertook a mini review in 2012. 2.1.6 This report provides an up to date assessment of the supply and demand of childcare within the Isle of Wight and processes future actions. 3. What is Childcare? Childcare is defined in Section 18 of the Act “as any form of care for a child”, including “education … and any other supervised activity”. In the Childcare Act 2006, ‘Early Years Provision’ means childcare for a child aged from birth until 31st August following the child’s 5th birthday and ‘Later Years Provision’ means childcare for a child from 1st September following the child’s 5th birthday until the child reaches 18. (See sections 20 & 96 (6) of the Act.) Childcare includes some ‘supervised’ activities for under 18 year olds. This may overlap with local authorities’ duties under section 507B of the Education Act 1996, to secure sufficient leisure activities’ for 13-19 year olds. 6 CHILDCARE SUFFICIENCY REPORT – Select Committee – July 16th 2015 3.1.1 Ofsted1 [Office for Standards in Education] registered childcare is paid for by parents and is in addition to the free early years education entitlement for 2/3 and 4 year olds. The local authorities’ sufficiency duty refers to both types of provision. Local authorities are required by legislation to secure early education places offering 570 hours, from providers registered on the Ofsted Early Years Register. 3.1.2 The Childcare Act 2006, Section 7 establishes that all Local Authorities must secure sufficient free early years provision for all eligible children. All three and four year olds are entitled to up to 15 hours per week of free early years provision, up to a maximum of 570 hours per year from the start of term following the child’s third birthday until the child starts statutory schooling. In September 2013 this was extended to provide free early years education to 20% disadvantaged two year olds and increased in September 2014 to 40%.

    For feedback, please contact [email protected] Last updated 4-Apr-16 Review date 30-Apr-17 Sexual Health Introduction This constitutes the full section on Sexual Health for the Adults’ JSNA 2016. ‘Sexual health is a state of physical, mental and social well-being in relation to sexuality. It requires a positive and respectful approach to sexuality and sexual relationships, as well as the possibility of having pleasurable and safe sexual experiences, free of coercion, discrimination and violence.’1 Who’s at risk and why? According to the National Survey of Sexual Attitudes and Lifestyles Surveys (Natsal)2,3 sexual health behaviour of the population of England has changed since the survey was first undertaken in 1991. The 2011 Natsal survey demonstrated an increase in the: number of sexual partners over a person’s lifetime, particularly for women, where this has increased from 3.7 (1991) to 7.7 (2011) sexual repertoire of heterosexual partners, particularly with oral and anal sexual intercourse All sexually active individuals of all ages are at risk of sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including HIV, and unplanned pregnancies (in the fertile years). However, the risks are not equally distributed amongst the population, with certain groups being at greater risk. Poor sexual health may also be associated with other poor health outcomes. Those at highest risk of poor sexual health are often from specific population groups, with varying needs which include: Men who have sex with men (MSM) Young people who are more likely to become re-infected with STIs Some black and ethnic minority groups Sex workers Victims of sexual and domestic abuse Other marginalised or vulnerable groups, including prisoners Nationally, there is a correlation between STIs and deprivation.

  • Telford & Wrekin Council
    TELFORD & WREKIN COUNCIL West Midlands Property Alliance Using assets for growth Introduction Background Telford and Wrekin is a unitary district with borough status in the West Midlands. The district was created in 1974 as The Wrekin, then a non-metropolitan district of Shropshire. In 1998 the district became a unitary authority and was renamed Telford and Wrekin. It remains part of the Shropshire ceremonial county and shares institutions such as the Fire and Rescue Service with the rest of Shropshire. The borough’s major settlement is Telford, a new town designated in the 1960s incorporating the existing towns of Dawley, Madeley, Oakengates and Wellington. Telford was a new town run by the Telford Development Corporation (TDC) from the 1960s to the changes in 1974. Telford is located in central England with excellent connectivity by road and rail to Birmingham, Manchester, London and other centres. This connectivity includes an international railfreight park serving businesses looking to move goods across the UK and to air and sea ports. The population of the borough is 173,000 set to rise to 200,000 by 2030. The town was designed to accommodate a population of 200,000 and so has the necessary space and infrastructure for a growth area.
