answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/07/2017 answer text <p>As the Secretary of State set out in her statement on 17 July 2017, we will make £315 million savings from the healthy pupils capital programme, reflecting reductions in the forecast revenue from the soft drinks industry levy, and release £280 million in savings from our free schools programme by working more efficiently to deliver our ambitious programme.

uin	5287
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/07/2017 answer text <p>We have more teachers in our schools than ever before and the number of teachers has kept pace with changing numbers of pupils. We are, however, aware that recruitment can be challenging for some schools.</p><p>We are therefore continuing to invest in recruitment; at the 2015 Spending Review we announced we would invest £1.3bn up to 2020 to attract new teachers into the profession. We have also given more schools the means to address recruitment locally, encouraging them to make greater use of pay flexibilities and retention allowances. We also continue to invest in professional development so the best teachers stay in the profession.</p><p>In addition, we are continuing our extensive work with the profession to remove unnecessary workload, the most frequently cited reason for teachers wanting to leave the profession, so that teachers can concentrate on teaching, rather than bureaucracy. This includes implementing the recommendations of the three independent review groups from the 2014 Workload Challenge – ineffective marking, use of planning and resources, and data management.</p> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb question first answered 24/07/2017 18:02:08 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/07/2017 answer text <p>The Government is taking the potential impact from the tragic Grenfell Tower fire very seriously. Building owners across the public sector estate have been contacted to ensure any risks are managed and dealt with appropriately and promptly. As part of this, we have contacted all bodies responsible for safety in schools, further education colleges and universities instructing them to carry out checks to identify any building which may require further investigation.</p><p>The two schools to date, where ACM cladding has been identified and tested, have been alerted to the results. As a precautionary step, both schools have already been inspected by the Fire and Rescue Service who confirmed appropriate measures are in place to mitigate the risks from potential fire, and the buildings have now been declared safe for continued use.</p><p>The Department for Education is continuing to work closely with the schools concerned to support them and ensure all the necessary steps are taken to ensure the continued safety of the buildings.</p><p>All schools already have to follow a range of strict fire safety regulations designed to ensure they are as safe as possible and well prepared in the event of a fire. They must have robust plans to follow in the event of a fire, conduct regular fire drills, install sprinklers if an assessment deems them necessary and typically have multiple exit routes.</p> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb question first answered 24/07/2017 15:59:18 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb
