	answer	answer answer text <p>The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) has no data on the total number of incidents of domestic violence and sexual violence that have occurred in each of the last five years and is unable, therefore, to provide an answer to the first part of the question.</p><p>Increasing the number of rape convictions continues to be a priority for the CPS. On 6 June 2014, a Rape Action Plan was jointly published by the police and CPS which sets out a series of actions designed to improve the criminal justice response in rape cases. This followed a Rape National Scrutiny Panel led by the Director of Public Prosecutions and the National Policing lead for rape, which considered the investigation and prosecution of rape cases including their referral from the police to the CPS. The prosecution of domestic violence also remains a high priority for the CPS and prosecutors receive regular training, and are provided with relevant guidance. The Rape Action Plan can be found on the CPS website at;</p><p><a href="http://www.cps.gov.uk/publications/equality/vaw/rape_action_plan.pdf" target="_blank">http://www.cps.gov.uk/publications/equality/vaw/rape_action_plan.pdf</a></p><p> </p> question first answered 23/06/2014 12:09:29 answering member 69

	answer	answer answer text <p>The Department for Education does not give funds directly to local authority maintained schools. Funds for extra assistance with students with special educational needs (SEN) come from schools' budgets and, if the extra cost is more than £6,000 per year for an individual student, from local authorities in the form of top-up funding for the school. Local authorities can also give extra funding to schools with a disproportionate number of pupils with SEN. Special educational needs coordinators should therefore seek any additional funds required from the relevant local authority.</p><p> </p> question first answered 23/06/2014 15:33:00 answering member 1605

	answer	answer answer text <p>The Government believes that professional development for teachers is important to help support and enable teachers to improve their practice, and an assessment of training and development needs must be included in teachers' written appraisal reports. Headteachers and teachers are best placed to make decisions about what professional development they require in order to meet the needs of their pupils.</p><p>To support this, on the 16 June 2014 the Department for Education issued new non-statutory guidance for schools and teachers on pupil's mental health and behaviour. This guidance gives information, guidance and practical tools on how to build resilience and support good mental health. It also helps school staff identify those pupils who may have emerging problems and provides guidance on appropriate routes of support.</p><p>We put before Parliament a new 0-25 SEN and Disability Code of Practice. This makes it clear that schools should look to identify any underlying mental health needs that pupils have. The Code emphasises the importance of staff development and provides a number of signposts to specific support. This includes further support for teachers and adults working with children and young people, which is available through MindEd <a href="http://www.minded.org.uk/" target="_blank">www.minded.org.uk</a>, a website funded by the Department of Health that helps adults identify and support children and young people's mental health issues.</p> question first answered 23/06/2014 15:35:13 answering member 1605

Local authorities have responsibility for securing sufficient school places to meet the needs of their local communities and have the statutory duties and powers to support that. They must also ensure that the balance of different types of provision meets local demand and that they make suitable transport arrangements for eligible pupils.</p><p>The Government does recognise the need to ensure that new provision meets the needs of the whole community. New academies and free schools with a religious designation may only prioritise up to 50% of pupils on the basis of faith-related admissions criteria.</p> question first answered 24/06/2014 09:57:12 answering member 1473
