Handwritten on Mitford’s keen interest in the photograph was the date, le 17 Juillet 1912, and a cross on what looked like our front door! Bedford Park history led Using a magnifying glass and with the help of a lovely friend to his discovery of an (fluent in French) we finally managed to decipher the text intriguing link between addressed to Mr and Mrs L Arnoult in Rouen, France: I realised that George Derville Rowlandson was a well-known Priory Avenue and a painter who lived in the house next door to ours in 1912 so 1920s’ Tour de France the cross had been drawn to show his house rather than ours. George had two sons, one of whom was called Paulin, cyclist. and who would at that time have been eight years old. Dear Parents I am writing this card mostly to announce the arrival of my bicycle. This morning I made it into London by bike and it took me a long time. I hope you are all well. I am in perfect health and I’m occupying myself a lot with food, which is good for me. I understand a fair amount when people address me at the table and I speak as well. At mealtimes we have whisky and water – it’s really good. I’ve been to London with Mr Rowlandson and his son Paulin, who is small for his age. When we came back we took the tube, which was really good. In London your money gets used up pretty quickly and I only have half a pound and 21 and a half pennies left. See you soon dear parents. Your son loves you lots, Maurice .

  • 30Hr Childcare: Analysis of Potential Demand and Sufficiency in Ealing
    30hr Childcare: Analysis of potential demand and sufficiency in Ealing. Summer 2016 Introduction: Calculating the number of eligible children in each Ward of the borough The methodology utilised by the DfE to predict the number of eligible children in the borough cannot be replicated at Ward level (refer to page 14: Appendix 1 for DfE methodology) Therefore the calculations for the borough have been calculated utilising the most recent data at Ward level concerning the proportions of parents working, the estimates of 3& 4 year population and the number of those 4yr old ineligible as they are attending school. The graph below illustrates the predicted lower and upper estimates for eligible 3&4 year olds for each Ward Page 1 of 15 Executive Summary The 30hr eligibility criteria related to employment, income and the number of children aged 4 years attending reception class (who are ineligible for the funding) makes it much more likely that eligible children will be located in Wards with higher levels of employment and income (potentially up to a joint household income of £199,998) and lower numbers of children aged 4years in reception class. Although the 30hr. childcare programme may become an incentive to work in the future, in terms of the immediate capital bid, the data points to investment in areas which are quite different than the original proposal, which targeted the 5 wards within the Southall area. The 5 Southall Wards are estimated to have the fewest number of eligible children for the 30hr programme. The top 5 Wards estimated to have the highest number of eligible children are amongst the least employment and income deprived Wards in Ealing with the lowest numbers of children affected by income deprivation.
