Fertility rate for England falls to a new record low

The provisional total fertility rate, which measures the average number of live children women are expected to have during their childbearing years, was estimated at 1.39 for 2025. This marks a further decline from the 1.41 children per woman recorded in 2024. For a nation's population to maintain stability over time excluding any impact from migration a total fertility rate of approximately 2.1 is typically required. The latest provisional figures are based on the 2025 projected population, and final rates are expected to be released later this year.
