	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/05/2019 answer text <p>We will publish both the number of schools that were made an offer of support, the number that accepted the support, and the methodology used to determine eligibility for the Opportunity North East’s ONE Vision Schools programme in due course.</p><p>The ONE Vision programme aims to improve outcomes for young people at key stages 4 and 5 in 30 secondary phase schools. We selected Ofsted Requires Improvement (RI) as the single indicator to identify the long list of secondary phase schools in scope to become a ONE Vision school and, by exception<strong>, </strong>Ofsted Inadequate schools. We then shortlisted schools using a comprehensive review of their performance data, pupil demographics, Ofsted history and intelligence from local authorities and trusts on which schools were priorities for support. We made an initial offer of support to 32 schools, of which 30 accepted.</p><p>The support that each ONE Vision school receives will be bespoke to their individual circumstances.
