  1. DIVIDEDBRITAIN Is There A Growing Division Between The Regions of Britain? Thomas and Jonathan Alleynes High School

  2. TheSouth East For many years Britain has been a prosperous and profitable country. Standards of living are high and the vast majority of people have a roof over their heads. It has a highly advanced society and business infrastructure, with many companies bringing in a huge annual turn over. However, is this factor common throughout all of Britain? Some areas thought to be particularly well off are the south-eastern regions of Britain. But do the facts show this: are living standards in the South East of England higher than in the rest of the UK?

  3. Regional Income Money is the key to modern life: too little brings poverty; too much brings jealousy and hatred. But whatever the time, place or situation money is needed for decent living standards – and England is no exception. House prices are at an all time high and more and more is being spent every day on items such as food and clothes. With an average minimum wage of £4.85 per hour for adults and £4.10 for adolescents between the ages of 18 and 21, can everyone cope with these price inflations? Look at this graph to see our findings: Total Household Income KEY: 0 – 60 Million 61 – 120 million 121 million + These results become even clearer when viewed as a map: It is obvious that there is more money in the South-East, and so a higher standard of living. But Income is not the only factor to take into account: another vital statistic is the number of people living in each region.

  4. ABar Chart Show UnterminatedConceptions in the Regions of Britain During 2001 UnterminatedConceptions There is a never ending stream of people being born throughout the UK every day. These children grow up to become the future of our country. But does the region they are born in effect their income and living standards? Firstly, abortions need to be taken into account: And then we can see the total number of unterminated conceptions: Unterminated Conceptions KEY: 0 – 40 thousand 41 – 80 thousand 80 thousand + Again, when viewed as a map the correlation cannot be doubted: As you could clearly see, the South-East again had the highest numbers. This means the most people are born in the South-East. However, the British division can be seen most definitively when income and Conceptions are compared together.

  5. A Bar Chart to Show Per Capita Income and Unterminated Conceptions of the Regions of Britain during 2001 IncomeandConceptions We have already gathered unterminated conceptions and income figures. This is what can be seen when the two are compared: This clearly shows that more people are being born in the South East, and that the South East has the highest per capita income. More people earning more money inevitably increases living standards. However, there is still one more factor to take into account: fatality.

  6. Fatalities Everyone who is born inevitably dies. The living habits and conditions of a person will more then likely dictate the age at which they die. So, does region effect the amount of people that die within it? This graph shows our findings: When viewed as a map, the results become very obvious: Fatalities KEY: Less than 10 people per thousand 10 – 11 people per thousand More then 11 people per thousand This shows that the South East has the lowest amount of deaths per thousand people. From our prior graph, you saw that the South East had the highest unterminated conception as well. This means more people are born and more people survive. This strongly suggests higher living conditions than the rest of Britain.

  7. Conclusion We have seen many facts and figures throughout this report, all of which prove the statement that we made at the beginning of the presentation: There are the highest income rates, births and life expectancies and therefore higher standards of living (when compared to the rest of the UK) in the South East Thank you for listening to our report.
