GCSE's : Percentage of 15 year old pupils in local authority schools achieving five or more GCSEs at Grade A*-C or equivalent

The proportion of 15 year old pupils in local authority schools achieving five or more GCSEs at Grade A*-C or equivalent has shown a steady increase between 2004 and 2007 in both male and female students. Girls have consistently outperformed boys, although this gap has narrowed slightly since 2007, at which point the rate of improvement in performance by both groups saw a sharp rise.

LFS Unemployment & Claimant Count, South West

Unemployment is assessed using two measures - Claimant Count and Labour Force Survey. The Claimant Count is a precise count of the number of people claiming Jobseekers Allowance (JSA) in any single month and can reflect changes in policy as well as the labour market. LFS unemployment is derived from survey responses, based on the number of people who state that they are actively seeking employment, but are not actually in employment.

This chart shows both the Labour Force Survey and Claimant based unemployment rates for the South West, from April 2008 to May 2011. LFS unemployment is considerably higher than the claimant count, due to the fact that significant numbers of people who would like to work and who are not working are unable to claim unemployment-related benefits.

Both LFS and Claimant unemployment rose rapidly at the start of the recession, from summer to 2008 and spring 2009. It is interesting that both levelled off during first half of 2009, even though the economy continued shrinking until the fourth quarter of 2009. Since then claimant unemployment has declined very slightly. LFS unemployment declined significantly during the early stages of the recovery, falling from 6.7% in August 2009 to 5.5% in July 2010. In July 2010 this improvement reversed. At 6.5% in February 2010, LFS unemployment had returned to levels roughly in line with those seen at the height of the recession.

Employment Rates by Gender, all aged 16 and over, South West

This chart shows the employment rate for men and women in the South West, from August 2008 to April 2011.

It shows that the employment rate for men fell more quickly than that for women over the period of the recession. This reflects job losses in manufacturing and construction over this period, while public sector employment, in which women are over-represented, remained stable during this period. From mid 2009 male employment rates began to recover while those for women continued to decline. From the second half of 2010 male employment rates have again started to fall, while those for women have remained static.

It was lowest in rural areas in the west and south of the region.

Proportion of claimants leaving JSA each month, by duration of unemployment, April 2008 to Present

This chart shows the proportion of JSA Claimants who cease claiming benefits each Month, by duration of claim, from April 2008 to April 2011. The chart shows that the likelihood of leaving benefits decreases with length of claim. Broadly speaking, around 30% to 35% of people who had been claiming JSA for less than 13 weeks leave the Claimant Count each month, compared to about 15% to 25% of those claiming between 26 weeks and 52 weeks, and 5% to 15% of those claiming for over one year.

There are significant monthly and seasonal fluctuations within the data. Discounting these, the chart shows that, over the last two years, the proportion of claimants leaving benefits has been gradually rising. This holds true for all durations of claim, although it follows a dramatic decline in the proportion of people leaving JSA each month at the start of the recession.

Live unfilled vacancies, South West, April 08 to Present

This chart shows the number of live unfilled vacancies available via Jobcentre Plus in the South West, from April 2008 to May 2011. Before the recession, 30,000 to 40,000 vacancies were available to jobseekers in the South West. This figure collapsed to 14,000 in January 2009, since when the number of live unfilled vacancies has gradually recovered, to between 20,000 and 25,000. This remains significantly below pre-recession levels.

Claimants per Vacancy, South West, April 08 to Present

This chart shows the number of JSA claimants per vacancy for the South West, from April 2008 to May 2011. Before the recession there were between 1.0 and 1.5 claimants per vacancy. This rose rapidly at the start of the recession, to over 4.0 claimants per vacancy in the spring of 2009. Although monthly fluctuations are large, with seasonal peaks in January and February of each year, the number of claimants per vacancy has shown a gradual decline since the height of the recession. In May 2011 there were 3.5 claimants per vacancy. This remains significantly above pre-recession levels, suggesting that the availability of employment remains low and competition for jobs continues to be high.

The number of female JSA claimants has fallen very little during the ‘recovery’ from recession. In the year to April 2010, the number of male claimants had fallen by over 8,000, compared to a fall of just 500 for females.

Higher Education: Participation, South West Local Authorities

This chart shows the change in the volume of people participating in Higher Education in the South West and England between 2004/05 and 2009/10. The graph shows that the number of HE participants was fairly steady until 2008/09 and the onset of recession. In 2008/09 the volume of people participating in HE rose dramatically, by five to six percentage points, which commentators put down to decisions to defer entry into an unfavourable labour market. The rise in HE participation also continued into 2009/10, though the rate of growth in the South West has not been quite as dramatic as that seen nationally.

Level of Sophistication of HR Planning by Number of Plans at E1

This graph shows the proportion of employers in each South West local authority area who were identified within the 2009 National Employers Skills Survey as having either no 'plans' or all three of plans about which they were asked, these being a) Business Plan b) Training Plan b) Training Budget.

Across the South West, almost three-fifths of all employers in the South West (57%) have a business plan specifying the establishment’s objectives for the 12 months ahead. 43% have a training plan specifying in advance the level and types of training staff will need in the coming year, and just over a third (36%) have a budget for this training expenditure. A third of the region's employers do not have any of these formal plans.

Sub-regionally, the proportion of employers with no or with three plans varies. Swindon, an urban area with a larger than average proportion of larger employers, has the highest proportion of employers with three plans (41%), and is the only area where the level of formal planning is higher than the level of those who do no planning. The highest proportions of employers who have no plans in place tend to be in the areas towards the south and west of the region i.e. Devon, Cornwall, Somerset and Dorset.
