Definition of a Lone Parent
• Census definition:‘A parent living without a spouse (and not co-habiting) with his or her never married dependent child or children aged either under 16 or from 16-19 and undertaking full-time education’.
• Income Support definition:‘The person responsible for a child under the age of 16 who lives in their household. The "living in the household " is usually determined by the person who actually receives Child Benefit for the child as there is no provision in the system to spilt Child Benefit between parents/carers who live apart’.

Real lives: What it’s like to be a workless lone parent in Little Hulton
• Case Study:– Single parent aged 25 years– 3 children aged 3, 5 & 8– Lived in LH all her life– Left school no qualifications– Became single parent after separating from a
violent partner– Attempted to get back into training &
employment without success
![Page 33: Lone Parents/Worklessness Little Hulton](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062519/568153d5550346895dc1cb7d/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

Understanding need
• Accurate DWP claimant count data available at SOA level and some other local data• Accurate Crime statistics• Feedback from consultations• Salford Childcare Sufficiency Audit
Strengths
• DWP data is currently 12 months out of date and does not segment lone parent claimants• Reliance on Census data for overall lone parent population, skills levels and family composition
• No sense of levels of new claims or churn in the system• Unable to measure the true level of need due to family support and ‘other’ networks• Unable to share data between agencies• No detailed management information on impact of lone parent provision at small area level e.g. Little Hulton
Weaknesses
![Page 35: Lone Parents/Worklessness Little Hulton](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062519/568153d5550346895dc1cb7d/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Planning and deciding
• Clear governance and accountability at Sub-Regional and City-wide levels (Team Manchester, City Strategy, EDLSP)• Established and emerging structures at local area level (Neighbourhood Partnership Board, Little Hulton Task Group)• The new system for lone parents defines where additional service delivery is required
Strengths
• Lack of locally focused provision due to bulk service commissioning arrangements (DWP/LSC)
• Lack of integration and devolution around planning and decision making• Lack of co-ordination and management of engagement activities
Weaknesses
![Page 36: Lone Parents/Worklessness Little Hulton](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062519/568153d5550346895dc1cb7d/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Delivering
• Some locally based services e.g. Skills & Work, Children’s Centre, One Stop Shop. Learn Direct• New delivery opportunities in healthy living centres, extended schools, libraries, RSLs• Increased support for lone parents through legislative change from November 2008
Strengths
• Numbers of workless lone parents are increasing• Significant issues with engagement with service provision• Short term funded projects and initiatives, unstable service provision• Impact of service provision unknown or limited• Lack of third sector presence/ no community anchor• Low take up of Salford based provision• Inflexibility to take up provision in Bolton• Low level referrals for Skills for Life diagnostic assessments – are skills needs being met?• Limited skills and work provision located in Children’s Centre• Poor performing schools and low levels of educational attainment• Lack of in work and ongoing support for lone parents• Lack of integration between delivery agencies• Finance including childcare costs seen as a major barrier to moving into work
Weaknesses
![Page 37: Lone Parents/Worklessness Little Hulton](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062519/568153d5550346895dc1cb7d/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Reviewing and Learning
• Claimant count performance monitoring city-wide and by ward• Some services measured for impact on lone parents• Through Spotlighting:
• have developed a better understanding of how the Little Hulton community has evolved• Services have learned the impact of their policies through engaging in the process e.g. housing
Strengths
• Performance monitoring city wide not by neighbourhood and ward (except for LAA & CS targets)
• Impact of mainstream contracted provision not understood at local area level or systematically shared
• Impact of some lone parent provision unclear• DWP contracted & Skills and Work provision currently only tracked to 13 weeks in work• Distance travelled not measured
Weaknesses
