4 PREFACE

The Southend Children and Young People's Plan (CYPP), reflects the intentions of the Council, schools, partner agencies and children and young people themselves, to secure continuous improvement across the following key areas:-

 Improving Children’s health and wellbeing,  Keeping young people safe and protected from harm,  Supporting vulnerable children and families,  Improving children’s educational attainment and future prospects.

This Data Supplement is a sub document of the Plan and is produced on an annual basis based on the latest January Annual School Census (ASC).

The Data Supplement is intended to give a clear analysis of demography, the organisation of school places, and the need to add, remove, relocate or otherwise re-organise school places. No consultation is required and the Supplement is published for information only. Both the CYPP and this Data Supplement are available on the Southend-on-Sea Borough Council website www.southend.gov.uk/southendchildrenspartnership

Significant pupil number changes over recent years

In 2010/11 the birth rate in Southend peaked at 2,289. Numbers have fluctuated over the following years. Although there has been a borough wide downward trend (See figure 11 on page 19) this has been small and different areas of the borough are still seeing increases.

Since 2012/13 the overall primary numbers have increased steadily from 13,236 to 14,824 in 2016/17 as the higher birth rates fill the primary schools year on year (see figure 12 on page 19). This trend is forecast to continue up to 2018/19 and possibly into future years depending on increases in overall population of the borough.

11-16 year old numbers had declined over the last eight years. The higher primary numbers are now impacting on the secondary sector and over the next five years the year seven numbers are forecast to increase significantly. (See figure 19 on page 26).

Post-16 numbers in school sixth forms have declined between 2012/13 and 2016/17 in line with the decrease in year 11 numbers. Post-16 is forecast to gradually increase again from 2017/18 (see figure 27 on page 31).

Pupil Mobility (defined as the total movement in and out of schools by pupils other than at the usual times of joining and leaving) is watched for trends. The DfE October 2016 data for all schools in Southend showed a 5% mobility factor across primary and secondary phases. Individual school data is shown in figure 6 on page 15 and figure 20 on page 26.

5 There are currently 616 pupils attending the borough’s five special schools and PRU (see figure 30 on page 36).

6 DEMOGRAPHIC AND OTHER FORECASTING DATA

Southend on Sea Borough Council is a Unitary Authority set up in April 1998 providing education to children living in a densely populated urban area with the 2011 census showing a total population of over 173,700 residents. Current information indicates this figure has increased to approximately 178,000.

In January 2017, a total of 29,143 children attended schools within the early years, primary, secondary and special educational needs sectors in Southend. Details are shown in figures 1 below and figure 2 on page 8. Figure 3 on page 9 shows a map of all schools in the borough.

Of the overall total of 29,143 there are 14,239 females and 14,904 males.

The forecasts published in summer 2016 were 1% less than actual total primary pupil numbers and the equivalent secondary forecast was 0.5% above actual total secondary numbers.

Since a 2012/13 peak, overall post-16 pupil numbers have declined by 12% as the lower numbers in Key Stage 4 transfer into Key Stage 5. The staying on rate from year 11 to year 12 in 2016/17 was 60%, a 0.5% drop against 2015/16. The Year 12 to year 13 retention rate was 90.4%, up from 86.2% in 2015/16.

Figure 2: Pupil Numbers by School Year and Age Group 9 1. NURSERY & EARLY YEARS PROVISION

1.1 Existing Provision

The Local Authority (LA) provides three levels of pre-school places across the borough.

15 Hours free childcare for 3 and 4 year olds – All three and four year old children are entitled to 15 hours per week free early years childcare from the start of the term following their third birthday.

30 Hours free childcare for 3 and 4 year olds – From September 2017 eligible working parents of 3 and 4 year old children could receive up to an additional 15 hours of funded early education a week, on top of the current 15 hours available for 3 and 4 year olds. Families could receive up to 30 hours funded education over 38 weeks (or up to 1140 hours per year).

These places are in schools, pre-schools and playgroups in the private, independent, voluntary and maintained sectors.

15 Hours free child care for 2 year olds – If a child is aged 2 and the parent/carer are in receipt of Working Tax Credits or a Qualifying Benefit, they could qualify for up to 15 hours free childcare at a child-minder, nursery or pre-school.

Private Sector Nursery Provision

In the private sector there are 117 providers registered for grant funding. Although private sector providers do not have fixed places, the LA termly headcount in January 2017 indicates that 2,747 children were on roll for varying numbers of sessions. Figure 4 below shows the numbers and ages of children funded at private providers from January 2013 to January 2017.

Nursery Provision in Schools

The current maximum number of full time equivalent places (FTE) in LA maintained nurseries is 470 FTE places. Each FTE place is equal to two half-day sessions so the maximum number of pupils who could be offered provision is 940. The details of this provision and the actual uptake are shown in figure 5 below.

1.2 Future Provision

The Early Years Team will continue to monitor the demand for nursery places against availability across all areas of Southend. Where additional places are needed they will then work with the voluntary, private and school sectors to ensure there are sufficient places in the relevant areas for two to four year olds.

11 2. PRIMARY

2.1 Existing Provision

As at January 2017 the Borough of Southend had a primary school population of 14,824 served by a total of 34 schools. There is a range of infant, junior and primary schools: 5 infant (age 4-7), 5 junior (age 7-11) and 24 primaries (age 4-11). All infant schools are linked with junior schools on the same site. A summary of these schools, including their capacities, numbers on roll and surplus places is included in the Primary Schools List in figure 7 on page 16.

Schools vary in size from intakes of 30 to 150 pupils (1 to 5 forms of entry). The borough has a high percentage of large primary schools. There are no primary schools designated as small (fewer than 90 pupils). At the time of printing the primary schools are also divided into 12 maintained, 5 voluntary aided and 17 academies. For parents seeking a denominational place for their child at a voluntary aided school there are 4 Catholic Schools and 1 Church of England School. There are currently no primary Free Schools in Southend.

The borough had a surplus capacity in primary schools of 8.0% based on figures for 2016/17. It should be noted that this 8.0% surplus places calculation does not include those schools which have a negative capacity figure. This surplus is also not spread evenly across the borough.

Surpluses are forecast at 7.1% for 2021/22. This decrease reflects where the expanded schools are filling up year on year as a result of the September 2015 expansion programme and will reduce further as the additional forms of entry reach the higher year groups.

The number of primary school children resident in Southend from minority ethnic groups is shown in figure 8 on page 17. The table shows that there has been an increase over the last three years. These children are mainly concentrated in the central area of Southend. For many, English is not their first language.

A number of children from outside the borough attend Southend primary schools (see figure 9 on page 17). These numbers have shown an increase over the last four years. The highest numbers are mainly in schools near the borough boundary as parents exercise their right to apply for a place in their preferred non catchment school when spaces are available.

Due to the closeness in locality of primary schools in the borough there is considerable cross catchment movement of pupils as parents exercise their right to choose their preferred school. Figure 10 on page 18 demonstrates the percentage of primary school pupils against their home address catchment. It should be noted that whilst there is a good spread most pupils do not tend to travel out of their geographic cluster.

Pupil mobility (defined as the total movement in and out of schools by pupils other than at the usual times of joining and leaving) is monitored for trends. The October 2016 census for primary schools in Southend reported a 7% mobility factor with the highest numbers being seen in the two central areas of the town. Individual school data is shown in figure 6 on page 15.

12 2.2 Forecasting Influences

As the borough has significant variations in the density of its population individual school correlations can be quite different. The density of schools within an area also has an impact. However the past pattern of admissions relative to births can be used across the different parts of the borough to predict future admissions.

The forecasting of pupil numbers entering schools in the borough is based on birth data provided by the local Registry Office. Over the past five years there has been an average 95% correlation between the number of children born in the borough and the number entering maintained education four years later. The number of parents that elect to home educate, access a private education or seek a place further afield are not included in these calculations but are accounted for within the five percent overall loss from birth to admissions.

When forecasting overall numbers expected for admission at reception, Southend uses five geographic school clusters that include the faith schools, with each school having a designate catchment area that is used as part of their subscription criteria. A trend can be demonstrated within each cluster of the reception numbers against birth numbers. The birth numbers for each of these five clusters are shown in figure 13 on page 19. Two are over birth numbers, two are below and one has only a small variation. Where a catchment continues to produce more applicants than place available it will be assessed for future suitability.

As a first step, based on numbers only, the ninety five percent is split across the five clusters according to their historical percentage pickup rates. By looking at the births within a catchment and the number of pupils from that catchment taking up a school place in the corresponding reception year, the growth or contraction of numbers within a catchment can be demonstrated and assessed.

The number of reported births from 2007/08 to 2015/16, the related primary reception numbers and the number of places available are shown in figure 11 on page 19.

In 20010/11 the birth rate peaked at 2,289. Numbers fluctuated over the following four year with a general downward trend to 2151 for 2014/15. 2015/16 has seen a small increase, and following years will be watched carefully to ensure sufficient places across the borough. The forecasts for admission levels at reception age against current agreed capacities and by area group are illustrated in figure 15 on page 21.

Pupil forecasting will also be affected by housing developments. A close watch is kept on planning approvals so that information on proposed future developments can be included in the forecast of future pupil numbers. Housing developments that have a known start of occupation date are added in across all year groups then individual school trends and any changes to published admission numbers are then taken into consideration, the cluster splits are then adjusted from these impacts and forecast numbers allocated to each school. Additional pupils are added on the basis of an average 0.15 of a pupil per new dwelling with two or more bedrooms, spread over five years from the date the dwellings become available for occupation. The pupil product of 0.15 is the historical average of mixed new housing over a period of five years.

13 A high number of developments are within the central area of the borough which is also seeing the highest increase in births. A list of housing developments that includes all dwellings, including one bedroom only units, by the relevant catchment school and area is shown in figure 16 on page 22.

2.3 Future Trends

Areas within the borough also see movement as population demographics change, parents/carers move to live near their preferred school, or sections of the borough become more popular. These changes are assessed for impact on school allocations.

Forecasting is numbers, trends and as much local knowledge as available. Parental preference can change quickly, especially around change of headship or Ofsted Inspection results and this can impact on forecasts.

From 2012/13 primary numbers have increased steadily from 13,236 up to 14,824 as the higher birth rates, along with population growth, feed into the primary schools. These numbers, along with the next five year forecasts are detailed in figure 12 on page 19.

Reception places available have increased from 2,115 in September 2012 up to 2,330 for the September 2015 peak demand. At present the available places will reduce back to 2,255 by September 2019. However, the Local Authority has an ongoing, robust strategy to ensure that future demand can be met.

For planning purposes the borough's schools are divided up into five area groups. The record of births by area group shown in figure 13 on page 19 illustrates the differing patterns of recorded births across the borough. A map showing all primary schools and the group boundaries is shown in figure 14 on page 20.

Planning applications for housing developments are increasing. The agreed developments are primarily two and three person apartments and construction is underway. One large brownfield site is starting to produce larger dwellings and it is forecast that the local schools have sufficient spaces to take the expected pupil product. All developments will be carefully monitored. There are other large developments in the planning phase with not current agreed start dates, these are being watched with the pupil product calculated but not added into the forecasts until the start date is known.

At present the demand for places from new developments and new families moving into existing accommodation outside of the normal round of admissions are being met, but with limited parental choice, especially within Key Stage 2. This has led to a certain amount of mismatch in the geographical location of the demand and places being offered. Areas of dense housing provision, particularly in the Leigh and two Central Primary Groups, mean that certain schools in some years are not able to accommodate all pupils from their catchment areas. The LA is working with schools to ensure that all pupils can be offered a place, with as high a percentage as possible being given their first choice.

3.1 Existing Provision

Details of all the borough’s secondary schools, including capacity, numbers on roll, curriculum specialty and surplus places are in the Secondary Schools List at figure 17 on page 25.

In January 2017 the secondary school population of 10,501 was served by 12 medium to large sized schools and admission numbers vary from 5 to 10 forms in each year group. These schools offer a diverse range of provision comprising of four single gender Grammar Schools, two single gender Catholic Schools and six non-selective co-education schools. Eleven of these schools are registered Academies, with the remaining school due to convert to an Academy in the 2018. There are currently no Secondary Free Schools in Southend.

Entrance to the four Grammar schools is by an ‘eleven plus’ selection test. All pupils who obtain a pass are ranked for admission by the mark they obtain, with priority given to pupils living within the SS0 to SS9 postcode areas.

Of the 1,880 pupils in the July 2016 Southend Year Six cohort 13.2% took a place in one of the four grammar schools in September 2016.

Work to narrow pupil achievement gaps where they exist, including where a pupil performs very well in one subject and less well in another, or where a pupil or group of pupils are not performing as well as their peers is ongoing. Feedback on the work carried out continues to be positive and it is planned to be continued.

The borough has a total of 7.0% surplus places in secondary schools. This statistic is somewhat misleading however as most of these places are located in only one school. One secondary school has more than the 25% surplus places normally considered excessive by the DfE. However, as the higher primary numbers enter the secondary schools these surpluses will be replaced by a shortfall. A secondary expansion programme is underway to address this shortfall with the first expansions coming into effect from September 2018.

Pupil mobility also impacts on the location of available places for pupils moving into the borough and is monitored for trends. The October 2016 census for secondary schools in Southend reported a 4% mobility factor with the highest numbers being seen in the central area schools. Individual school data is shown in figure 20 page 26.

The ethnic background at Southend's secondary schools is detailed in the table at figure 18 page 26. As in primary, the percentage of pupils from other ethnic groups has increased slightly over the last three years.

23 3.2 Forecasting Influences

The transfer of pupils from primary to secondary phases in the borough is complex. Figure 21 page 27 shows the destinations of Southend primary pupils who left year 6 in summer 2016.

Forecast year 7 figures follow the trend of the previous year 6 cohort size supplemented by a number of factors:

 Pupils travel in from Essex principally to attend the grammar and faith schools. Statistics on a school by school basis for the last 5 years are in figure 22 page 28.

 Pupils from private schools in the borough gain places in the grammar, faith and other secondary schools.

 Pupils also travel from Southend to Rochford and Castle Point. Details are included in figure 23 page 28.

Figure 24 page 28 shows a summary of the pupil flows over the last 5 years.

The information in figures 22, 23 and 24 is based on the home postcodes of year 7 pupils and identifies those living outside the borough. This represents a slightly different group from those in figure 21 page 27 which is based on attendance at Southend Primary Schools rather than home address.

3.3 Future Trends

The forecast year 7 admission numbers for 2017/18 to 2021/22 and the total 11-16 aged secondary school populations for this period are shown in figure 19 page 26.

Year 7 numbers have seen a reduction between 2008/09 and 2013/14. September 2014 numbers increased against the previous year and from September 2017 the current higher births will start to reach secondary school age and year seven numbers are forecast to reflect this.

Both permanent and temporary additional places are needed from September 2018 onwards. A programme of expansion is underway with one school already building on site and a second school towards the end of the process to gain planning permission to add a new building to their current accommodation. Further secondary schools will follow. A minimum if 120 new places in year seven will be added for September 2018 and further places will be created in the following three years.

28 4. POST-16

4.1 Existing Provision

There are three main sources of Post-16 education for Southend students:

Secondary School 6th Forms of Further and Higher Education, Southend SEEVIC College, Thundersley, Castle Point

The numbers of Post-16 pupils attending a Southend secondary school are illustrated at figures 25a and figure 25b page 30, with a year by year breakdown at figure 26 page 31. All but two secondary schools currently offers Post-16 courses.

Of the 2,014 year 11 pupils on roll in January 2016, 1,205 were in Secondary School Post- 16 education in January 2017. This gives a year 11 to year 12 retention of 60%.

4.2 Forecasting Influences

Post-16 numbers in school sixth forms rose steadily to a peak of 2,719 in 2012/13. Despite the increased school leaving age that from September 2015 required all pupils to remain in education or undertake training in the work place until they are 18, the last three years have seen a reduction of pupils accessing school Post-16 places as most pupils who would normally wish to leave school have continued to do so and taken up alternative education or training offers. Actual and forecast year by year data is shown in figure 27 on page 31.

Numbers are forecast to stay at the lower level for the next two years. From 2019/20 numbers are expected to increase slowly as higher numbers in key stage three work their way up to post-16 education.

4.3 Future Trends

The higher pupil numbers now entering secondary schools will start to impact on Post-16 places from 2020/21. A close watch will be kept on availability of places and the local authority will liaise with all providers to increase capacity as the need arises.

31 5. INCLUSION & SPECIAL NEEDS

The majority of Southend children with specific special educational needs (SEN) are catered for in Southend schools through attendance at local mainstream schools, resource bases or special schools. A small number of children attend special schools or units outside the borough. Figure 28 below provides a summary of the numbers of children with statements or Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCP) in each school phase.

Since September 2014 reforms that aimed to give children and young people with SEN and their parents a greater say in the support they receive have come into effect in England. Under the new system, covering from birth to age 25, EHCPs replace SEN Statements and Southend is in the process of transferring all Statemented SEN pupils over to EHCPs.

5.1 Special Educational Needs Provision

Southend is served by a wide range of SEN provision across designated schools, alternative provision and resources provided within mainstream schools.

Figure 30 page 36 details the specialisms, capacities and numbers on roll of the main five areas. A total of 616 children attended these areas as at January 2017.
