JSNA information - previous years

This dashboard has been created to offer key data and information about all electoral wards across a variety of subject categories.

Please note: Currently, the information is presented under the old electoral wards. As the new wards have only just been instated, the data that we currently have is not yet for the new boundaries so please interpret with caution.

When new data is released, primarily from the Census, this will be presented under the new ward boundaries.

Demographics

Information on the demography of an area such as the age structure, gender and ethnicity profile of its population is essential in better understanding an area, its needs and assets. It is vital in the delivery of services like education, transport, and healthcare.

Understanding trends and nuances around sparsely and densely populated areas helps us to better understand the current situation. It can help to inform future requirements.

This section brings together information on population, household composition and trends. Which can be used to inform the delivery of services across the Isle of Wight both by the Council and other local organisations.

Demographics and Population Power BI report 2018/19 - Published February 2020

This Power BI report offers an insight into the population of the Isle of Wight. It includes:

• the geography of the Island,
• latest population estimates (including age bands and gender split),
• ethnicity,
• religion or belief,
• migration,
• population trends, 
• population projections.

The Isle of Wight Council is required by law to publish the data it collects on the protected characteristics of its workforce, and its community. The Local Government Equality Duty (as set out in the Equality Act 2010) has set a clear expectation. It is expected each year the data collected by local authorities is refreshed and published. This means the local community has access to this information.

The nine protected characteristics under the Equality Act 2010 are:

1. gender,
2. race,
3. age,
4. disability,
5. sexual orientation,
6. marriage and civil partnership,
7. pregnancy/maternity,
8. religion or belief, 
9.  gender reassignment.

One of the key features of the island is that the numbers of our older population are higher than across our comparators. The Island is also less ethnically diverse than in other regions. You may find other interesting features here. As well as the challenges we sometimes face to capture information to give a current and in depth picture of our whole community.

This Power BI report explores the Island’s ‘diversity’. The characteristics of diversity (as defined in the Equality Bill 2010) on the Isle of Wight are discussed, including; Age, Gender, Ethnicity, Religion, Disability, Transgender Status, Sexual Orientation and Pregnancy & Maternity, as well as Marriage & Civil Partnerships.

Isle of Wight Council Workforce Profile provides a detailed breakdown of the equality and diversity make-up of the Isle of Wight Council workforce.

The 2011 Census forms were completed in March 2011. They currently provide information that is being used to produce population estimates for the country. As well as all geographical regions and all local authority areas.

The information taken from the Census can help local authorities to understand the needs of different people and groups in their communities. This will give a clear idea of the kind of services in areas such as housing, schools, transport and healthcare, needing to be considered approximately over the next ten years. This helps to make sure the appropriate central government funding is obtained to plan those services.

The following documents have been produced by the Isle of Wight Council Public Health Information Team. They provide a statistical snapshot of the Isle of Wight, as revealed by the 2011 Census.

A selection of Census data has been chosen to give a topical impression of the Island, to show how it compares with the country as a whole. It illustrates how population, housing and employment characteristics vary considerably between areas.

Planning for land use, employment creation and social development requires an understanding and knowledge of basic facts about the population and its environment.

These documents are a small step towards explaining the complexities and intricacies of the mass of statistics available about the Island. It is hoped that it may convince some people that statistics really can be fun, as well as useful.

To provide a complete picture, certain other statistical sources have been used. Where data used is not from the 2011 Census, this is clearly indicated.

Pregnancy & Babies

Giving every child the best start in life is crucial to reducing health inequalities across the life course. The foundations for virtually every aspect of human development, physical, intellectual and emotional are laid in early childhood. What happens during these early years (starting in the womb) has lifelong effects on many aspects of health and well-being. From obesity, heart disease and mental health, to educational achievement and economic status.

To have an impact on health inequalities we need to address the social gradient in children’s access to positive early experiences. Later interventions, although important, are considerably less effective where good early foundations are lacking.

Children who have low cognitive scores at 22 months of age but who grow up in families of high socioeconomic position improve their relative scores as they approach the age of 10. The relative position of children with high scores at 22 months, but who grow up in families of low socioeconomic position, worsens as they approach age 10.

There has been a strong government commitment to the early years, enacted through a wide range of policy initiatives, including Sure Start and the Healthy Child Programme. It is vital that this is sustained over the long term. Even greater priority must be given to ensuring expenditure early in the developmental life cycle (that is, on children below the age of five) and that more is invested in interventions that have been proved to be effective.
