2010/11 NCMP guidance for analysis
The 2010/11 NCMP guidance for analysis provides information on further analyses that may be undertaken on the National Child Measurement Programme (NCMP) datasets in order to: produce a regional or local overview of the data; obtain a better understanding of the epidemiology of child obesity and overweight within their area; feedback useful information to PCTs, school nursing teams, schools, or other partners, ensuring confidentiality of the data; help improve participation and data quality in the 2011/12 NCMP. Further analysis of the NCMP 2010/11 dataset is optional. This guidance is designed to support those PHOs and PCTs that wish to undertake additional investigation of the data.
