Demographics
The CPRG specialises in community statistics and research on the Jewish community in the UK. They have published research in 2007 that showed that the UK Jewish Community was growing again for the first time in 60 years and another piece of research showing the probability of oversupply of places in non-strictly orthodox Jewish schools [ [http://www.thejc.com/home.aspx?AId=56275&ATypeId=1&search=true2&srchstr=cprg&srchtxt=1&srchhead=1&srchauthor=1&srchsandp=1&scsrch=0 The Jewish Chronicle ] ] [ [http://education.guardian.co.uk/schools/story/0,,2213585,00.html Falling numbers at Jewish schools | EducationGuardian.co.uk] ] .
