answer text <p>The Government recognises that podiatry is important for people’s physical and mental wellbeing. Regular foot care allows people to remain active and independent. It also offers alerts to early signs of other more serious health issues such as poor circulation and ulcers which is especially important for people who have diabetes.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) recommends that people with diabetes have regular examinations to assess individual risk, and those at increased risk are referred to a member of a foot protection team for long-term surveillance. In addition NICE recommends that all people with diabetes have their foot risk assessed on admission to hospital for any reason; and any person with diabetes who has newly occurring foot disease be referred for urgent assessment by a member of a specialist multidisciplinary team.</p><p> </p><p><em> </em></p><p> </p><p>The National Audit Office report<em> The management of adult diabetes services in the NHS</em> published in May 2012, confirms that foot care examination is one of the basic care processes for people with diabetes, to be delivered annually to provide early recognition and management of risk factors that can prevent or delay the development of ulcers which can lead to amputations.</p><p> </p>

answer text <p>The National Audit Office report <em>The management of adult diabetes services in the NHS</em> published in 2012, estimated that a reduction of late referrals to specialist foot teams by up to 50%, could save the National Health Service at least £34 million a year by decreasing the number of major amputations among people with diabetes.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The College of Podiatry has recently produced a briefing paper entitled <em>The importance of podiatry to better health outcomes. </em>They estimate that the cost to the NHS of poor foot care management is in excess of £1 billion.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The latest published National Diabetes Audit report shows that over 85% of all those with diabetes in England and Wales received a foot examination in 2011-12, as recommended by National Institute for Health and Care Excellence Guidelines for Diabetes in adults.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Within NHS England the National Clinical Director for Rehabilitation and Recovering in the Community and the Chief Allied Health Professions Officer are leading work to improve adult rehabilitation services including collection and dissemination of best practice.

answer text <p>All schools with academy status, including grammar schools which are academies, may give priority in their admissions arrangements to disadvantaged children (ie those eligible for the pupil premium). The freedom granted through the funding agreement, allows these grammar schools to lawfully implement oversubscription criteria prioritising disadvantaged children within their admission arrangements, should they wish to do so. It is for the individual grammar schools to decide whether or not to adopt this priority within their own oversubscription criteria. To date, we understand 32 grammar schools have prioritised disadvantaged children in their arrangements and a further 65 intend to consult on doing so.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Maintained schools – including maintained grammars – can currently adopt this freedom if they are granted a Power to Innovate Order. However, we have revised the School Admissions Code to allow all state-funded schools to adopt a pupil premium priority, should they wish to do so. Subject to parliamentary approval the revised Code will come into force in December 2014.</p><p> </p>

answer text <p>Supply teachers employed directly by a maintained school or local authority must be paid, like other teachers employed by these institutions, in accordance with the statutory arrangements set out in the School Teachers’ Pay and Conditions Document. They are also automatically enrolled in the Teachers’ Pension Scheme and are eligible for the same pension benefits as other teachers. The arrangements for supply teachers employed by private agencies, including their pensions and rates of pay, are private commercial arrangements.</p> more like this
