Percentage of children in absolute low income families: Aged 0-15 - WMCA Wards (2025)

This is the proportion of children aged under 16 (0-15) living in families in absolute low income during the year. The figures are based on the count of children aged under 16 (0-15) living in the area derived from ONS mid-year population estimates. The count of children refers to the age of the child at 30 June of each year. Low income is a family whose equivalised income is below 60 per cent of median household incomes. Gross income measure is Before Housing Costs (BHC) and includes contributions from earnings, state support, and pensions. Equivalisation adjusts incomes for household size and composition, taking an adult couple with no children as the reference point. For example, the process of equivalisation would adjust the income of a single person upwards, so their income can be compared directly to the standard of living for a couple. Absolute low income is income Before Housing Costs (BHC) in the reference year in comparison with incomes in 2010/11 adjusted for inflation. A family must have claimed one or more of Universal Credit, Tax Credits, or Housing Benefit at any point in the year to be classed as low income in these statistics. Children are dependent individuals aged under 16; or aged 16 to 19 in full-time non-advanced education. The count of children refers to the age of the child at 31 March of each year. Data are calibrated to the Households Below Average Income (HBAI) survey regional estimates of children in low income but provide more granular local area information not available from the HBAI.

Gross value added (GVA): All industries - WMCA Wards (2025)

This is the total gross value added (GVA) generated from all industries in the area calculated using a balanced approach to GVA. These figures are presented in £ millions at current basic prices. They do not allow for different regional price levels or changes in prices over time (inflation). Balanced GVA estimates are produced by combining the existing income and production GVA estimates using weighted quality metrics. Income GVA estimates are calculated by adding up the income generated by individuals or corporations in the production of goods and services whilst the Production Approach estimates GVA by calculating the total output of goods and services less the value of goods and services used up in the production process. A Balanced approach evaluates the strengths and weaknesses of these two opposing approaches and gives them an appropriate weighting in informing a single ‘balanced’ estimate of GVA. GVA estimates are on a workplace basis, that being they are allocated to where the economic activity took place.

1 or more fixed period exclusions - secondary (pupils) - WMCA

This is the number of pupils with one or more fixed period suspensions at state-funded secondary schools. A fixed period exclusion refers to a pupil who is excluded from a school but remains on the register of that school because they are expected to return when the exclusion period is completed. The head teacher of a school can exclude a pupil on disciplinary grounds only. Good discipline in schools is essential to ensure that all pupils can benefit from the opportunities provided by education. The decision to exclude a pupil must be lawful, reasonable, and fair. In addition, schools have a statutory duty not to discriminate against pupils on the basis of protected characteristics, such as disability or race. Schools and LAs must arrange alternative provision from the sixth day of the exclusion of pupils of compulsory school age. Fixed period exclusion refers to a pupil who is excluded from a school for a set period of time. A fixed period exclusion can involve a part of the school day and it does not have to be for a continuous period. A pupil may be excluded for one or more fixed periods up to a maximum of 45 school days in a single academic year. This total includes exclusions from previous schools covered by the exclusion legislation. 'State-funded secondary schools' refers to those schools maintained by the local authority, including middle schools deemed as secondary, city technology colleges, and academies. Pupil and exclusion numbers of 1 to 4 are suppressed to protect pupil confidentiality and numbers at national and regional levels are rounded to the nearest 10. Local authority totals across school types are also rounded to the nearest 10 to prevent disclosure of any suppressed values. Where any number is shown as 0, the original figure was also 0. Data is [Powered by LG Inform Plus] and automatically checked for new data on the 3rd of each month.
1 or more fixed period exclusions - state schools (pupils) - WMCA

This is the number of pupils with one or more fixed period suspensions at state-funded primary, state-funded secondary, and special schools. A fixed period exclusion refers to a pupil who is excluded from a school but remains on the register of that school because they are expected to return when the exclusion period is completed. The head teacher of a school can exclude a pupil on disciplinary grounds only. Good discipline in schools is essential to ensure that all pupils can benefit from the opportunities provided by education. The decision to exclude a pupil must be lawful, reasonable, and fair. In addition, schools have a statutory duty not to discriminate against pupils on the basis of protected characteristics, such as disability or race.

Fixed period exclusion refers to a pupil who is excluded from a school for a set period of time. A fixed period exclusion can involve a part of the school day and it does not have to be for a continuous period. A pupil may be excluded for one or more fixed periods up to a maximum of 45 school days in a single academic year. This total includes exclusions from previous schools covered by the exclusion legislation. Schools include state-funded schools including schools maintained by the local authority (primary, middle, and secondary), maintained special schools, non-maintained special schools, academies, and special academies. Pupil and exclusion numbers of 1 to 4 or percentages based on these are suppressed to protect pupil confidentiality and numbers at national and regional levels are rounded to the nearest 10. Local authority totals across school types are also rounded to the nearest 10 to prevent disclosure of any suppressed values. Where any number is shown as 0, the original figure was also 0. As pupils can receive more than one fixed period exclusion, in some cases the rate of exclusion may be above 100%.

Number of people on Universal Credit - Birmingham Constituency

This is the number of people claiming Universal Credit. This total includes both claimants who are not in employment and those eligible who are in employment. Important: The number of Universal Credit claimants includes those who have started Universal Credit (completed the Universal Credit claim process and accepted their Claimant Commitment) and have not had a closure of their claim recorded for this spell, up to the 'count date' (second Thursday in each month). A claim may be closed at the request of the individual or if entitlement ends, for example, if financial conditions are no longer met (e.g., capital over £16,000). Note: Figures for the latest month are provisional and will be finalised in the next release. The expectation is that the overall provisional figure will be within two per cent of the final figure. Figures represent the current Jobcentre Plus office that the claimant is attending. People may have started their claim in one office and moved to another. Universal Credit was first introduced in 2013 as a single monthly payment and has been rolled out over several years. It replaces the following benefits and tax credits: * Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA) * Income-related Employment and Support Allowance (ESA) * Child Tax Credit * Working Tax Credit * Housing Benefit * Income Support Statistical disclosure control has been applied with Stat-Xplore, guarding against the identification of an individual claimant.

Percentage of prescribed antibiotic items from cephalosporin, quinolone and co-amoxiclav class - ICB

Broad-spectrum items prescribed in primary care settings include the following antimicrobials: cephalosporin, fluoroquinolone, and co-amoxiclav. Data is presented as the percentage of broad-spectrum items prescribed over all prescribed antibacterials in the British National Formula (BNF) 5.1 category by Integrated Care Boards (ICBs). A twelve-month rolling figure uses the most recent 12 months' data per data point. The lower the percentage presented, the lower the proportion of broad-spectrum items prescribed. ## Rationale The consumption of antibiotics is a major driver for the development of antibiotic resistance (AMR) in bacteria. AMR is a serious and growing global public health concern with implications for every government and the populations they serve. The emergence and spread of infections caused by bacteria that are resistant to treatment by current antibiotics strikes at the heart of modern medical and veterinary practice. The use of antibiotics is essential for saving lives in conditions such as sepsis. The UK government released a [report in 2013] and a [report in 2019], with ambitions to reduce UK antimicrobial use in humans by 15% by 2024. ## Definition of numerator The total items of antibacterials (BNF 5.1) prescribedin the current month and the preceding 11 months. ## Definition of denominator ONS mid-year estimates based on ICB sub-level boundaries ## Caveats The figures produced in this indicator are crude; comparison between different areas needs to be treated with caution. The quarterly total number of antibiotic items per STAR-PU indicator adjusts for confounding factors, age, and sex. Antibiotic items are only included if they have a BNF 5.1 antibacterial code. The denominator uses the same subset of the BNF chapter 5.1 that is currently used in [NHSBSA ePACT2] and does not include all antibiotic items in this chapter. Figures will vary if compared to similar indicators at different geographical levels as they are separate and have different criteria for inclusion and exclusion. Figures are aggregated to the ICBs level and may be missing due to GP not being matched to an ICB. Figures are updated, for example, to take into account merging with another provider or boundary changes.
Antibiotic Guardians per 100,000 population per quarter - ICB

Number of Antibiotic Guardians per 100,000 population across NHS Integrated Care Board (ICB) sub-levels ## Rationale [Antibiotic Guardian] is a UKHSA-led behaviour change campaign to encourage improved behaviours and engagement on the prudent use and prescription of antibiotics with members of the public and healthcare professionals. The indicator shows the rates of Antibiotic Guardians per 100,000 population per year as a measure of engagement within the area on antibiotic resistance. For this indicator, a higher rate is indicative of increased engagement. ## Definition of numerator Antibiotic Guardian pledgees in England. ## Definition of denominator ONS mid-year estimates based on ICB sub-level boundaries

Household waste per head of population - WMCA

This is the number of kilograms of residual household waste collected per head of population collected. Residual waste is any collected household waste that is not sent for reuse, recycling or composting. This was previously collected as BVPI 84a 2007/08. The numerator is total tonnage of household waste arisings. The denominator is population in authority area X 1000. Rounding differences may occur.
