Migrant Workers in Rochdale and Oldham Executive Summary Lisa Hunt, Andy Steele and Jenna Condie Salford Housing & Urban Studies Unit University of Salford August 2008 2 The Study In recent years, there has been an increasing focus on the migration of people from Eastern Europe and the new EU countries 1. It is now recognised that local authorities need to understand the composition and needs of their local population in order to be able to plan and deliver services effectively, as well as being able to respond to any issues relating to community cohesion 2. Consequently, some local authorities are making efforts to find out about the experiences and needs of these new and emerging communities. This research was commissioned by Oldham Housing Investment Partnership, Oldham Metropolitan Borough Council, Oldham Rochdale Housing Market Renewal Pathfinder and Rochdale Metropolitan Borough Council in January 2008 and was conducted by a team of researchers from the Salford Housing & Urban Studies Unit (SHUSU) at the University of Salford.

  • Educational Inequalities in Greater Manchester
    Educational Inequalities in Greater Manchester Characteristics of School‐Age Pupils in Greater Manchester Socio‐Economic Disadvantage About the indicator: Socio‐economic disadvantage in education is usually measured by eligibility for Free School Meals (FSM). Pupils are eligible for Free School Meals if their families are on low incomes and not in full‐time work. Greater Manchester has a higher proportion of children on FSM than England or the North West. In all authorities in Greater Manchester (as in England), higher proportions of the Early Years cohort (aged under 5) are on FSM than the Key Stage 2 (KS2) cohort (the end of primary school, or the Key Stage 4 (KS4) cohort (aged 15/16 and taking. Levels of socio‐economic disadvantage vary across Greater Manchester. Manchester has the highest levels ‐ with around 1 in 3 pupils eligible for Free School Meals – and Stockport and Trafford have the lowest levels. Percentage of children on Free School Meals by stage of education, 2013/14 Ethnic Diversity About the indicator: Children whose ethnicity is known are classified into 5 broad Ethnic groups. These are ‘White’, ‘Mixed‐ethnicity’, ‘Black’, ‘Asian’ and ‘Chinese’. A small percentage of children at each stage do not have a classification for their ethnicity. Where there are very small numbers of children of a particular ethnic group (e.g. at Local Authority level), the exact figures are not reported to preserve pupil confidentiality. Greater Manchester has a higher proportion of minority ethnic pupils than England or the North West. In all authorities in Greater Manchester, the Early Years cohort has the highest proportion of minority ethnic pupils, indicating how the conurbation is becoming more diverse over time There is a great deal of diversity in both the size and composition of the minority ethnic cohort between authorities in Greater Manchester.

  • Ashley and Morley Clan
    The Ashley and Morley Clan Last Updated 2nd Septemberr 2020 ©2019, 2020 Ray Warburton Table of Contents Preface 2 Surnames 3 Descendants of John Warburton First Generation 4 Second Generation 5 Third Generation 7 Fourth Generation 14 Fifth Generation 20 Sixth Generation 34 Seventh Generation 53 Place Index 58 Person Index 69 1 PREFACE This clan documents a clan from Morley in Wilmslow and connects it to a family in Ashley within Bowdon parish that is descended from Josiah (died 1764) and Martha nee Bradbury. Josiah’s origins are uncertain but he is possibly the Josiah son of John who was baptised in Northenden in 1715. The Josiah name, which occurs throughout the clan, suggested that this clan is linked to the Hale Barns clan. However DNA shows it is unrelated, it being linked to the Nottinghamshire clan with a common ancestor who probably lived before 1600 AD. A number of links in the first couple of generations are 'most likely' rather than proven. Future DNA results might help here, though single mismatches might result from a non paternal event rather than signifying an error in the tree.
