EDI Neighbourhood Data EDI Results & 2011 Neighbourhood Demographics

EDI The Early Development Instrument (EDI) gathers data about children’s developmental vulnerability. – EDI is a population-based tool that measures children’s development in five key domains, providing a snapshot of how developmentally ready children are when they enter Grade 1. – Examining results by these domains helps to determine strengths and needs of a particular population (community) so that our communities have a better understanding of the relationship between the way children develop and the environment in which they live.

EDI – What We Know Research by staff at the Offord Centre has found: – Birth circumstances have an important impact on children’s readiness to learn at school – Children with low birth weight and/or preterm births were more likely to score in the lowest 10 th percentile (vulnerable) – Children with normal birth weight and full-term pregnancies were least likely to score low in two or more readiness to learn domains

EDI – What We Know Lower neighbourhood school readiness has been associated with: – Lower income – Higher % of lone-parent families – Higher % of low income families – Higher % of families who have moved within the last year Research conducted by M. Janus and D. Offord – Offord Centre for Child Studies

National Household Survey Data Provides data that was previously collected in Census Suppresses data for areas where the response was less than 50% of the population Data definitions changed from Census to NHS making it difficult to compare historically (some, but not all) Population Counts still with Census
