Details

The annual update to child education and homelessness indicators gives data to inform planning for health and associated services for local populations. They are intended for use by local government and health service professionals.

The child education and development indicators which have been updated include:

  • persistent absentees in primary and secondary school
  • skills development at key stages 1 and 2

Indicators for family homelessness and homeless young people aged 16 to 24 have not been updated. Recent changes to methodology and data quality in the source data used to calculate these indicators mean that they cannot be updated in 2019 to 2020.
