Birth Rate Data ?

[fimbo]

have seen this mentioned on another thread - what information am i able to get from birth rate data, and where do i find this info ? it would be handy to see how numbers are stacking up for the next few years etc.

We got ours from our LEA business advisor. Apparently it should also be available from your local childrens centre.

many thanks kirsty -what info could you get from it ? is it based on county figures -or is it more specific ?

[garrison]

I think it should be more specific to locality as school admissions service uses it to predict required places as children reach school age

ONS website? (Office of National Statistics).........it's why we have to fill in census forms

 

Not the easiest site to navigate - but it should be there somewhere.

very interesting figures when looking at individual counties, might have to open a setting in barking and dagenham!

You can actually get individual wards, so we were able to look at the data just for our village and the surrounding villages

We access LBR data from our local health authority. If you ask for postcodes to be included you can match this down to very small defined areas of a ward (approx 150 households) called Lower Suoer Output Areas. Ask your local Early Years Advosirs if they have this info available. Please remeber though that people do move about so it is never entirely accurate
