Community Profiles Appendix
Much effort has been taken to ensure the data contained within the Community Profiles remains as reliable and accurate as possible. However, information changes regularly and this is not always reflected in the resources available to us. If you are aware of incorrect, or more recent, information, please contact or and the profiles can be amended. This is particularly true for sections 7, 11 and 12, where community input and local knowledge is most valued.
Thank you
1. Indices of Deprivation
Taken from the Leicester-Shire and Rutland Sport Accessibility Toolkit 2012
Indices of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) 2010 Ranking
Data for the IMD figures is collected by the Department for Communities and Local Government and The Social Disadvantage Research Centre at the University of Oxford.
The Lower Super Output Area (LSOA) with a rank of 1 is the most deprived in England (out of 32,482). The higher the ranking, the less deprived an area is. The IMD 2010 was constructed by combining the seven transformed domain scores, using the following weights; income (22.5%), employment (22.5%), health and disability (13.5%), education, skills and training (13.5%), barriers to housing and services (9.3%), crime (9.3%) and living environment (9.3%).
The symbols used in the initial table represent where the various wards fall within the LSOA ranking:
Red = lowest third 0 -10,827 (highest deprivation)
Amber = 10,828 - 21,654
Green = 21,655 - 32,482 (lowest deprivation)
Change in Ranking between 2007 and 2010
The shift in IMD ranking of an LSOA between 2007 and 2010. The higher the shift in rank, the more the area has become deprived. The less the shift, the less deprived it has become.
Health Deprivation and Disability Ranking (HDD) 2010
Data for the Health Deprivation and Disability figures is collected by the Department for Communities and Local Government and The Social Disadvantage Research Centre at the University of Oxford.
The LSOA with a rank of 1 is the most deprived, in terms of health and disability, in England (out of 32,482). The higher the ranking, the less deprived an area is. The health domain combines 4 indicators about a range of health issues to give an overall score for the level of health deprivation experienced in a small area. The indicators used in this domain are; Years of Potential Life Lost (YPLL) / Comparative Illness and Disability Ratio / Measures of acute morbidity, derived from Hospital Episode Statistics / The proportion of adults under 60 suffering from mood or anxiety disorders based on prescribing, suicide mortality rate and health benefits data.
The symbols used in the table represent where the various wards fall within the HDD LSOA ranking:
Red = lowest third 0 -10,827 (highest deprivation)
Amber = 10,828 - 21,654
Green = 21,655 - 32,482 (lowest deprivation)
The Indices of Multiple Deprivation data is due to be updated in September 2015.
Child Poverty Figures
Figures from the Campaign to End Child Poverty
The national targets:
There are four dimensions of poverty captured under the Child Poverty Act, each with a target to be met by 2020. They are:
• Relative low income poverty (below 60 per cent median household income)
• Absolute low income poverty (below 60 per cent of median household income held constant at 2010/11 level)
• Persistent low income poverty (below 60 per cent of median household income for three years or longer)
• Material deprivation combined with relative low income (below 70 per cent median household income and suffering from inability to afford essential spending needs)
Before housing costs or after housing costs?
The most reported measure of child poverty is relative low income poverty, often referred to as the ‘headline measure’. The government target is tracked using figures before housing costs, which show a lower rate of poverty because the costs of housing are so high.
The Campaign to End Child Poverty always uses the after housing cost measure when referring to the total number of children living in poverty across the UK.
Figures for England were not available for 2014, but have been continued to be included to show comparison. These will be updated as/if more recent figures become available.

6. Education & Employment
0-5 Early Years Achievement
Figures provided by Senior Improvement Advisors, Leicestershire County Council 2013-14
From September 2012, new measures of child development were introduced that assessed Good Level of Development (GLD) and Supporting Measure of the Good Level of Development (SM). A child is deemed to have achieved a GLD if they have achieved a least expected in the prime areas of learning and specifically in maths and literacy. The table shows the percentage of children who have achieved a GLD. The SM takes into account performance across all 17 early learning goals, scoring 1, 2 or 3 points depending on their performance. Each child’s individual scores are totalled and then averaged to create the measure. Information relates to the reach areas covered by each Charnwood Children’s Centre.
Child development at age 5
