Note: This dataset has been archived as of January 2024, as will not be made available to the public. Information that the data is ward-level aggregated which is volatile and easy to misinterpret the data and the level datasets are misleading if published.
Child Obesity and Excess Weight data from the National Child Measurement Programme (NCMP, published by Public Health England).
NCMP data is an annual survey of children attending state schools, which is the denominator for percentages. Figures are based on child residence postcode. Data is shown for Lincolnshire and Districts, Wards, and NHS Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG).
The data shows children at risk of obesity and excess weight (which includes overweight and obesity). It uses population monitoring criteria, not clinical assessments which might give lower prevalence rates. NCMP data covers state schools but does not include independent sector children, and some larger children may opt out.
The data is updated annually. Source: Public Health England (PHE) National Obesity Observatory.
