Set of 2011 Census Key Statistics profile tables for London borough of Camden and Camden's 18 electoral wards

Alex Singleton, Lecturer in GIS at Liverpool University has created a set of maps of the 2011 Census Key and Quick Statistics ​released in January 2013 for output areas (small areas) in Camden and for other local authorities. This PSF has the maps for Camden only.

A new wards structure comes into effect from 1 January 2022. Data from the 2011 Census has been 'best fit' to the new wards to give some idea about the demographics for the new areas. The file includes a map of the areas and is indexed by the names of the 20 new wards.

2011 Census Key Statistics Profiles (and map) for each of the 5 Camden primary school planning areas, plus a comparable profile for Camden. The profiles provide a snapshot across the demographic data from the national census, giving background to the differing characteristics of the 5 primary school planning areas.

This dataset contains properties which are paying Non-Domestic Rates (NDR) to Camden Council. Historical data is included to see how rates have changed over time.

The 2021 Camden Annual School Places Planning reporting incorporates all underlying demographic data including: existing provision and capacity, actual registered births, and fertility, the latest GLA resident forecasts for births and their relationship to school rolls, GLA resident population and school roll forecasts, together with the additional pupils associated with new housing developments. The analysis is used to help us make informed decisions about the future organisation of school places at primary and secondary. This year, the Council has also included a review of its planning of places for pupils with special education needs and disabilities.

Our understanding of the current demographic pressures facing schools has also informed the development of Camden’s new Education Strategy. It will be the purpose of the strategy, and our continued school organisation work, to ensure that our school system is sustainable and stable, offering the best outcomes for our residents.

Recent school place reports have identified significant changes and a high level of volatility in demography at a national and local level. Over the last 5 years there has been a significant reduction in demand for pupil places within Camden. Forecasts for this year have been drawn up at a time of unprecedented change and challenge for families in Camden. Specifically, the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have fundamentally altered people’s lives, the impacts of which are significantly reducing the level of demand for places anticipated within the current forecasts. These factors create a significant degree of uncertainty, and a less stable environment in which to plan ahead. The GLA modelling aims to account for these as best as they can but rely on assumptions of future trends that can only be accurately assessed over time.

We consider that it is too early to be definitive about the medium-term impact on school rolls of the new forecast figures given the hugely disruptive impact of Covid. We will need to consider carefully current admission numbers and next year’s school roll projections before we can come to any firm conclusions beyond the difficult action the Council has already taken in removing available school places. The impact on pupil rolls of the recent arrival in Camden of significant numbers of children and young people, including asylum seekers and Afghan nationals, is also not yet known.

Ensuring Camden has the right number of school places is both the Council’s statutory responsibility and aligns with our Camden 2025 priorities. Preventing schools becoming financially vulnerable and thus subject to unplanned change, helps maintain strong, safe, and open communities. Good and outstanding schools promote independent healthy lives and support strong growth and jobs.

The 2021 Census 'Approximated Social Grade' tables are a set of multi-variate cross-tabulations that provide ‘an estimation of the financial and social situation of usual residents in households and how this differs by age and sex, and ethnic group’.
This file lists and links to Approximated Social Grade tables currently available, with data extracted for Camden and statistical geographies (where available), and with Greater London and England comparisons (12 tables).
