Description
|
The purpose of this domain is to capture the extent of deprivation relating to education, training and skills. It is designed to reflect educational disadvantage within an area in terms of lack of qualifications or skills. The domain has a relative weight of 14% in the overall index. There are six indicators in education domain, weighted as follows. Factor analysis was used to calculate the indicator weights.
- 9.9% Foundation Phase Average Point Score
- 11.7 % Key Stage 2 Average Point Score
- 27.6% Key Stage 4 Average Point Score for Core Subjects
- 21.7% Repeat Absenteeism
- 13.2% Proportion of Key Stage 4 leavers entering Higher Education
- 16.0% Number of Adults aged 25-64 with No Qualifications
For every indicator, each LSOA was ranked in order, with the most deprived LSOA ranked 1 and the least deprived LSOA ranked 1,909. These ranks were assigned to a normal distribution, with low ranks receiving a low normalised score. They were then combined using the weights above. As with all domains, the final domain ranks were exponentially transformed to form domain scores. |
