  • West Midlands
    West Midlands Introduction The West Midlands has an area of just under 13,000 km2. Around 5.2 million people live in the region, giving a population density of 405 people per km2. This is close to the average for England, but West Midlands metropolitan county – which consists of Birmingham, Coventry, Dudley, Sandwell, Solihull, Walsall and Wolverhampton – is the second most densely populated urban area in the country after London. It has nearly 3,000 people per km2. Birmingham has just under 1 million inhabitants, making it the second largest city in the UK. Other significant urban areas are Stoke-on-Trent, Worcester, Coventry, Wolverhampton and Stafford. Economic development The economic output of the West Midlands is just around £63 billion, 8.2 per cent of the total UK GDP. Manufacturing industry is responsible for just over a quarter of employment and almost 30 per cent of GDP, the highest proportion for any region in the UK. However, the manufacturing industry is declining in favour of service industries. Unemployment in the region is above the national average at 5.9 per cent. The total income of higher education institutions in the region is over £990 million per year. Higher education provision There are 12 higher education institutions in the West Midlands: eight universities and four higher education colleges. There are an additional 41 further education colleges with students taking higher education courses. All nine Staffordshire FECs offering HE courses have joined a funding consortium of 12 institutions led by Staffordshire University. The higher education student population is over 127,000 full-time equivalent (FTE) students.

    Education and Skills Pledge June 2020 Education and Skills Pledge The impact of Covid-19 on learners and businesses in the West Midlands has been unprecedented. As we move through the public health emergency, further education colleges in the West Midlands will play a pivotal role. We recognise that Covid-19 may change ways of studying and working in the future. Many of you, as residents in the region, may need to refresh and redevelop your skills. Colleges in the West Midlands are working collaboratively for you. We have agreed this Education and Skills Pledge to support both individual learners and the region’s businesses. In addition to the great courses offered across our colleges, we are committed to supporting anyone who is out of work, helping them to gain new employment or re-train. We will also support businesses, helping them to restart and flourish again. We will provide more higher and technical skill development opportunities required by employers. Colleges West Midlands is delighted to be working collaboratively for you in these challenging times. Lowell Williams Chair Colleges West Midlands www.collegeswestmidlands.org.uk Our Pledge 1 All learners will continue to receive online or distance learning delivery right through to the end of the summer term. Access to college sites from June will be prioritised for those learners needing to complete technical elements of programmes in order to progress or for some elements of transition programme delivery, subject to safe working conditions being in place. 2 All full-time learners (whether new or continuing) will receive an enhanced transition programme at the start of the new academic year to ensure they are able to successfully move on with their studies.
