It also provides recommendations to the LSEP about where to invest its budget for Access Centres in Leicester City in 2005/06 and beyond. 1.3 An Access Centre is a one stop shop for community services and learning provision. Core services include adult learning courses, information technology training, child care and job and career guidance. Additional services can include a credit union, welfare and benefits advice, health education, capacity building for volunteers, job vacancy information, legal advice and signposting to other services. 1.4 The LSEP feel they lack sufficient evidence on current adult learning provision in Leicester, to make effective investment decisions.

Detailed data capture can be found in the Balanced System® Early Outcomes Fund account which can be accessed by Strategic and City Leads.

Quantitative data includes an analysis at ward level of the population, demographic, predicted speech, language and communication needs along with demand in the form of referrals and caseload of children and young people known to the speech and language therapy service and the workforce to meet the identified need. Workforce and known caseload data, where this has been shared, are available at a City-wide level but is not readily available to triangulate at ward level. Educational attainment data and Ofsted data are also considered. This quantitative analysis is triangulated with qualitative information about the range of provisions and identified gaps in provision across the Five Strands of the Balanced System®: Family Support, Environment, Workforce, Identification and Intervention and across the three levels of universal, targeted and specialist support.
