  • 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.

In the UK, the media’s persistent focus on finding anything and everything problematic with Islam or Muslims has, to some extent, entered the subconscious of many parts of British society. Sober thinking parts of the academia and intelligentsia are now getting quite perturbed about it. This makes the on-going work of the MCB even more critical and relevant in today's climate and in the latter part of this address I will say a few words about this.

  • Valuing Ealing's Urban Trees
    Valuing Ealing’s Urban Trees EALING I-TREE ECO TECHNICAL REPORT Report Published in 2018 ©Trees for Cities 2018 Designed by Arup FOREWORD Ealing’s trees are an integral part of the borough’s character, from the 400 year old woodlands to the Cherry blossom-lined streets; even the borough’s logo sports a tree. Trees can play an important role in promoting mental and physical wellbeing, adding colour and beauty to the built urban landscape, reducing the heat island effect and they have the ability to absorb large quantities of water, to help reduce the risk of flooding. Ealing’s trees are becoming increasingly valuable as we face challenges of climate change and population growth. The Council’s vision is to increase and enhance the whole of the urban tree stock for the enjoyment of current and future generations and to ensure that trees remain a defining feature of the splendid suburban borough that is Ealing. One of the overarching themes of the new draft London Plan (December 2017) is creating a healthy city. The Plan suggests that green infrastructure, including trees, must be planned, designed, and managed in a more integrated way to ensure Londoners reap the multitude of benefits it provides, including mental and physical health and wellbeing. The Plan emphases that the urban forest is an important part of London’s green infrastructure and a major asset to the urban environment. This report helps us better understand the importance of Ealing’s trees and woodlands. The economic and social value of trees has become increasingly evident across all of London and has been highlighted in the London i-Tree Assessment and the Natural Capital Account for London’s public parks and green spaces.
