The health and wellbeing information set out here relates to the local authority in which your school is located. Although this information does not tell you about children and young people in your school, it does tell you about those in your local area and can help you identify your local priorities. Comparing figures for your local authority with the England figure will give you a feel for whether this is an issue that needs to become a priority. The information presented here is just some of what is available to you. You will want to consider this area-wide data alongside data you have for your school. For ease of reference, indicators are organised the domains of the Public Health Outcomes Framework A number of indicators used in the School-Age Children local area profile are taken from the Tellus 4 survey. The survey represents the views of a sample of children and young people in school years 6, 8 and 10. Poverty The Child Poverty Act 2010 places a statutory duty on local authorities to carry out a child poverty needs assessment in their area and to develop a local child poverty strategy, thereby establishing a framework for local partners to cooperate to tackle child poverty. The proportion of children living in poverty is calculated by HM Revenue & Customs as the proportion of children living in families who receive out of work benefits or tax credits their reported income is less than 60 per cent median income. The table below shows the proportion of children living in poverty in Cornwall and how this compares regionally and nationally. Cornwall South West England 16.5% N/A% N/A% I
the reasons behind decisions being explained and the available support discussed. External agencies will be invited to these discussions where necessary. Where confidentiality or anonymity has been breached, the school will implement the appropriate disciplinary procedures as necessary and will analyse how damage can be minimised and future breaches be prevented. Online safety All pupils will be made aware of online risks and taught how to stay safe online. All staff members will, through training, be made aware of the following: Pupil attitudes and behaviours which may indicate they are at risk of potential harm online. The procedure to follow when they have a concern regarding a pupil’s online activity. Holy Trinity C of E Primary School will ensure that suitable filtering systems are in place to prevent children accessing terrorist and extremist material, in accordance with the school’s E-security Policy. The use of mobile phones by and pupils is closely monitored by the school, in accordance with the Personal Electronic Devices Policy. The school will ensure that the use of filtering and monitoring systems does not cause “over blocking” which may lead to unreasonable restrictions as to what pupils can be taught regarding online teaching. Safer recruitment An enhanced DBS check with barred list information will be undertaken for all staff members engaged in regulated activity. A person will be considered to be in ‘regulated activity’ if, as a result of their work, they: Are responsible on a daily basis for the care or supervision of children. Regularly work in the school at times when children are on the premises. Regularly come into contact with children under 18 years of age. Pre-employment checks The governing board will assess the suitability of prospective employees by: Verifying the candidate’s identity, preferably from the most current photographic ID and proof of address except where, for exceptional reasons, none is available. Obtaining a certificate for an enhanced DBS check with barred list information where the person will be engaged in regulated activity. Obtaining a separate barred list check if an individual will start work in regulated activity before the DBS certificate is available.
Although it is believed by many to be a religious issue, it is a cultural practice. There are no health benefits. Communities particularly affected by FGM in the UK include girls from: Somalia, Kenya, Ethiopia, Sierra Leone, Sudan, Egypt, Nigeria, Eritrea, Yemen, Indonesia and Afghanistan. In the UK, FGM tends to occur in areas with larger populations of communities who practice FGM, such as first-generation immigrants, refugees and asylum seekers. These areas include: London, Cardiff, Manchester, Sheffield, Northampton, Birmingham, Oxford, Crawley, Reading, Slough and Milton Keynes. Key Points: It is not a religious practice Occurs mostly to girls aged from 5 – 8 years old but up to around 15 year old Criminal offence in UK since 1985 Offence since 2003 to take girls abroad Criminal penalties include up to 14 years in prison Reasons for this cultural practice include: Cultural identity – an initiation into womanhood Gender identity – moving from girl to woman Sexual control – reduce the woman’s desire for sex Hygiene/cleanliness – unmutilated women are regarded as unclean Risk Factors: Low level of integration into UK society Mother or sister who has undergone FGM who are withdrawn from personal, social health education (PSHE) A visiting female elder from the country of origin Being taken on a long holiday to the family’s country of origin Talk about a ‘special’ event or procedure to ‘become a woman’ High Risk Time: Be aware This procedure takes place in the summer, as the recovery period after FGM can be 6 to 9 weeks. Schools should be alert to the possibility of FGM as a reason why a girl in a group is absent from school or where the family request an ‘authorised absence’ for just before or just after the summer school holidays. Although, it is difficult to identify girls before FGM takes place, where girls from these high-risk groups return from a long period of absence with symptoms of FGM, advice should be sought from the police or social services. Post-FGM Symptoms include: Difficulty walking, sitting or standing Spend longer than normal in the bathroom or toilet Unusual behaviour a lengthy absence Reluctance to undergo normal medical examinations

Anchorman: It involves how to balance the extent in communication, especially the extent to reveal risks. As far as I know, Mr. Patrick Wall once used a common figure to explain the barriers and approaches to communicate with the public about food safety. Patrick Wall: I the first is that scientists have the responsibilities for the vacuum information, because many scientists were quiet busy working in laboratories, and they have special scientific language that can only speak to other scientists, so they do not bother to talk to the public, and because of the vacuum information, people begin to inverse stories, like the media that like to say stories and sell frightened news to newspaper and TV. So the solution to the problem is to get the scientists to talk to the public and talk with the language that the public can understand, and we need a bridge to have the journalists and the scientist to explain science to the public. We should also take better measures in supervision and regulation, and take severe punishment to criminal offenders. Only in this way can we improve consumers’ confidences in food and make them feel that the nation puts more concern on their interests than that of enterprises. Anchorman: Food problem is a hot potato for any one country. From above discussion we can find that there is a big gap between people's expectation and scientists' rationality. We will seek a best solution to minimize such gap in the near future. (Glimpse): Now the big screen is displaying a list of commonly discussed questions about food safety, including whether substandard foods are harmful to health and whether possibly cancerogenic foods are surely to cause cancer. In fact, these deceptively simple questions will undergo a long process of verification for us to find out scientific conclusions. Therefore, in confront with food safety issue, what we should do is not only to distinguish rumor from truth, but to hold and maintain a scientific and rational attitude towards it.
He is Beijing bureau chief of The New York Times. What the Chinese are most afraid of is a real movement toward independence. Which they have to stop. They have to continually warn Taiwan - and the United States - that "hey, don't push us too far. Or we will be forced to react militarily." That doesn't mean they want to invade Taiwan. They have a short timetable. The number one principle--if you are a Chinese leader--is not that you have to regain Taiwan in the next five years. It's that you can't lose Taiwan. Why do they worry about a small island, like this? It's unfinished civil war. It just looms very large in the history and mythology of the People's Republic of China. They fought a civil war with this nationalist government. They essentially defeated them. The nationalists escaped to an island which they consider an integral part of China. And then, because of American support and other intervening factors, they never finished. And I think especially for the military, this is the main reason for being--is to prevent Taiwanese independence and some day retake Taiwan. ... I think preventing Taiwanese independence is sort of a core principle of politics here. And no politician could go against that. ... Erik Ecklom The Republican senator has been a critic of China over the years.

these issues diplomatically, the fact that many of the unresolved border disputes involve potential energy reserves might prompt China to use military force to resolve issues of strategic and economic interest. [36] Disputed areas of Senkakus (Diaoyutai) China's border disputes may be divided into two categories. One is over land boundaries in its north and southwest borders, most notably, with Russia and India. The second category is over maritime boundaries involving both bilateral and multilateral relations. Bilaterally, China is in dispute with Vietnam over the demarcation of the Tonkin Gulf and with Japan over the Senkaku Islands (Diaoyu Islands in Chinese), a group of rocky islets lying on the edge of the continental shelf about 100 miles northeast of Taiwan.

politicians and general are arguing about whether defence spending should be allowed to fall below 2% of GDP rather than about how the money should be spent. Finally, a warning. Despite the success of the second offset strategy, it never fully dealt with the possibility that a losing power might resort to nuclear weapons. The logic of nuclear deterrence, it was assumed (or hoped), would survive an intense conventional conflict. The cheerleaders for a new offset strategy rarely mention nuclear weapons. Yet if a foe comes to believe it might win what the great strategist Thomas Schelling called “a competition in risk-taking”—an idea that Vladimir Putin, Russia’s president, actively encourages—the rational response to the other side’s technological superiority might be nuclear brinkmanship. As Elbridge Colby of the Centre for a New American Security argues: “The more successful the offset strategy is in extending US conventional advantages, the more attractive US adversaries will find strategies of nuclear escalation.” The enemy always gets a vote.
One area where multinationals currently have an edge is promoting collaboration and the internal collision of ideas, which can yield surprising new insights and business opportunities. In many Chinese companies, traditional organizational and cultural barriers inhibit such exchanges. Although a lot of these companies have become more professional and adept at delivering products in large volumes, their ability to scale up an organization that can work collaboratively has not kept pace. Their rigorous, linear processes for bringing new products to market ensure rapid commercialization but create too many hand-offs where insights are lost and trade-offs for efficiency are promoted. One Chinese consumer electronics company has repeatedly tried to improve the way it innovates. Senior management has called for new ideas and sponsored efforts to create new best-in-class processes, while junior engineers have designed high-quality prototypes. Yet the end result continues to be largely undifferentiated, incremental improvements. The biggest reason appears to be a lack of cross-company collaboration and a reliance on processes designed to build and reinforce scale in manufacturing. In effect, the technical and commercial sides of the business don’t cooperate in a way that would allow some potentially winning ideas to reach the market. As Chinese organizations mature, stories like this one may become rarer. China hasn’t yet experienced a true innovation revolution. It will need time to evolve from a country of incremental innovation based on technology transfers to one where breakthrough innovation is common. The government will play a powerful role in that process, but ultimately it will be the actions of domestic companies and multinationals that dictate the pace of change—and determine who leads it. About the Authors Gordon Orr is a director in McKinsey’s Shanghai office, where Erik Roth is a principal. Three snapshots of Chinese innovation Chinese innovation is evolving in diverse ways and at an uneven pace across a range of different industries. Presented here are ground-level views from three of them: automobiles, semiconductors, and pharmaceuticals. FEBRUARY 2012 In This Article
Situation China Life Pension Company, based in Beijing, China, manages pension and annuity services for businesses and individuals throughout China. The company, which also sells short-term medical insurance and accident policies, is an affiliate of China Life Insurance, the country’s largest insurer. The organization managed a total of 4.716 billion yuan (U.S.$690 million) in pension fees and assets from January to October 2009. During that same period, the company added 228,800 new customer accounts. With these numbers, the company ranks among the industry’s top pension managers. China Life Pension Company maintains an internal information management system designed to automate statistical analysis, provide high-efficiency business process management, and optimize employee decision making. Because the company recognizes that customer satisfaction is essential for business growth, it is dedicated to meeting its customers’ needs through high efficiency. For the past three years, the organization has managed a comprehensive business process management solution that covers each step of the customer order process. These steps include signing a contract, opening the account, allocating funds, making payments, and distributing investments. Recently, China Life Pension Company has faced increased competition from 37 other companies in the enterprise pension market. Because of this rapidly expanding field of competitors, there was increasing pressure to have even more efficient business processes at all stages. Also, because business processes at China Life Pension Company often involve different departments—such as business development, trustee, account management, and had become increasingly critical. The company’s employees also needed to collaborate with investment management companies and other external institutions in order to complete projects.
