unstar this property answer text <p>The data collected via the School Workforce Census shows that full time equivalent teacher numbers in special schools have risen by 2,900 between 2010 and 2017 (19%).</p><p> </p><p>However, the Department recognises that some schools, including special schools, are facing challenges in recruiting and retaining teachers. That is why in January 2019 the Department launched the Teacher Recruitment and Retention Strategy, which outlines four key areas for reform and investment. These include creating the right climate for leaders to establish supportive school cultures, transforming support for early career teachers, building a career structure that remains attractive to teachers as their careers and lives develop, and making it easier for people to become teachers.</p><p>Designed collaboratively with the sector, the centrepiece of the strategy is the Early Career Framework (ECF), which will underpin a fully funded, two year package of structured support for all early career teachers. The ECF draws on the best available research evidence and has been designed around the most effective forms of professional development for improving teacher retention for early career teachers. The strategy can be found here: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/teacher-recruitment-and-retention-strategy" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/teacher-recruitment-and-retention-strategy</a>.</p><p>For the 2019/20 recruitment cycle, the Department is taking forward the successful recruitment strategies from the last cycle, including boosting our marketing and support to applicants, providing generous bursaries for priority subjects, making it easier to take the skills test, and working with providers to ensure we are accepting every applicant who is ready to train to teach.</p><p>The Department is also addressing the issues that teachers cite as reasons for leaving the profession, by continuing to work extensively with unions, teachers and Ofsted to challenge and remove unhelpful practices that create unnecessary workload.</p><p> </p>

unstar this property answer text <p>The Department of Education is supporting sustainability both through the content taught to students, and through supporting our schools to become more sustainable institutions.</p><p>It is important that young people are taught about climate change and sustainability. Topics related to this are included in both the science and geography curriculum and qualifications. For example, in primary science pupils are taught about how environments can change as a result of human actions. In secondary science, pupils are taught about the production of carbon dioxide by human activity and the effect this has on the climate. This is expanded on in GCSE science where pupils will consider the evidence for additional anthropogenic causes of climate change. As part of GCSE geography pupils will look at the causes, consequences of and responses to extreme weather conditions and natural weather hazards. In 2017, we also introduced a new environmental science A level. This will enable students to study topics that will support their understanding of climate change and how it can be tackled.</p><p>In addition, sustainability content will be included in T levels, new post-16 technical study programs. In setting outline content, the T level panels of employers and industry experts must consider the inclusion of sustainability as relevant to their sector. For example, in Construction, T level students will be required to learn about renewable energy and emerging technologies to support energy efficiency.</p><p>The Department support sustainability through our capital funding and programmes, both to reduce carbon and save schools money on energy. Schools can use their condition funding to invest in improving energy efficiency. Furthermore, interest free loans for energy efficiency projects in maintained schools are available through the Government backed Salix finance scheme. Salix loans have also been made available to academies through an annual application process. More broadly, we are working with colleagues across the Government on carbon reduction and energy efficiency and developing thinking on how future capital programmes can contribute further.</p><p> </p><p>During procurements, Department for Education considers how this might improve the economic, social and environmental well-being of the area, where this is relevant to the subject matter of the contract.</p><p>From April, the Department will begin implementation of new government guidance on Social Value, which requires central Government Departments to take account of social impact as part of the award criteria where this is linked to the subject matter of the contract and proportionate. This may include reducing environmental impacts.</p>

unstar this property answer text <p>The revenue funding allocated for schools for the financial years 2010/11 to 2019/20 for Coventry local authority is shown in the table below. Aggregated schools funding is not allocated to primary and secondary schools separately, nor to parliamentary constituencies. Primary and secondary pupil numbers for each local authority in England can be found in the local authority tables for each year through following link: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/statistics-school-and-pupil-numbers" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/statistics-school-and-pupil-numbers</a>.</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>Financial Year</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Coventry local authority (£millions)</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2010-11</p></td><td><p>241.9</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2011-12</p></td><td><p>249.8</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2012-13</p></td><td><p>257.6</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2013-14</p></td><td><p>279.6</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2014-15</p></td><td><p>292.0</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2015-16</p></td><td><p>298.0</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2016-17</p></td><td><p>302.2</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2017-18</p></td><td><p>314.2</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2018-19</p></td><td><p>324.5</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2019-20</p></td><td><p>337.2</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p>Data for allocations prior to 2011/12 are not readily available. Most funding allocations are calculated at a responsible body level, and cannot be broken down to per pupil, primary or secondary, and constituency levels. This is because many responsible bodies, such as academy trusts, span local authority boundaries and decisions on investment in individual schools are often taken at a local level.</p><p>Basic need funding is allocated to local authorities to provide new school places in their area. The Department provides basic need funding for every place that is needed, based on local authorities’ own data on pupil forecasts. These allocations are calculated in line with demographic growth in the local area rather than existing population, so allocations may fluctuate across years. There are now 8,594 more school places in Coventry than there were in 2010.</p><p>In addition to this, Coventry has been allocated nearly £4 million through the Special Provision Capital Fund across 2018-21. This funding is intended to help local authorities create new places and improve facilities for pupils with special educational needs and disabilities.</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>(All values £millions)</strong></del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>2011-12</strong></del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>2012-13</strong></del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>2013-14</strong></del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>2014-15</strong></del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>2015-16</strong></del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>2016-17</strong></del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>2017-18</strong></del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>2018-19</strong></del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>2019-20</strong></del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>2020-21</strong></del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>2021-22</strong></del></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><del class="ministerial">Basic Need allocations</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">9.9</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">9.7</del></p></td><td colspan="2"><p><del class="ministerial">12.5 12.5</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">0</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">0</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">3.2</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">6</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">8.2</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">1.9</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">23.7</del></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><del class="ministerial">Special Provision Capital Fund</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"> </del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"> </del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"> </del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"> </del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"> </del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"> </del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"> </del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">0.8</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">2.4</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">0.8</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"> </del></p></td></tr></tbody></table><p><ins class="ministerial"><table><tbody><tr><td><p><ins class="ministerial">(All Values £millions)</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2011-12</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2012-13</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2013-14 and 2014-15</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2015-16</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2016-17</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2017-18</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2018-19</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2019-20</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2020-21</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2021-22</ins></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><ins class="ministerial">Basic Need allocations</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">9.9</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">9.7</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">12.5</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">0</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">0</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">3.2</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">6</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">8.2</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">1.9</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">23.7</ins></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><ins class="ministerial">Special Provision Capital Fund</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">-</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">-</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">-</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">-</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">-</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">-</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">0.8</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2.4</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">0.8</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">-</ins></p></td></tr></tbody></table></ins></p><p>[1], [2]</p><p>In addition to basic need funding, the Department allocates condition funding each year to those responsible for school buildings to improve and maintain the condition of the school estate.</p><p> </p><p>For an explanation of condition funding and a breakdown of condition allocations paid to Coventry local authority to invest in maintained schools over the last ten years, I refer the hon.
