answer text <p>I am committed to improving the education offer and tailoring it to the individual needs of young people. This will include ensuring that there is sufficient time in the day for access to vocational activities, sports, and health and behavioural interventions as well as academic education. We are working with education providers and YOI sites to improve flexibility of provision within the 30 hour week, to drive delivery of a wide range of activities alongside traditional classroom based learning.</p><p>Across both sites at Feltham, there are more than 100 prison officers currently in training – with the first new officers beginning to arrive on the landings this month. This will help to provide better access to education and get young people engaged in meaningful activities which will help them to turn away from crime.</p> more like this

answer text <p>Keeping all children and young people in custody safe is a key priority for the Youth Custody Service. We are taking active steps to address and reduce the levels of violence for all those who live and work within the Youth Estate, including Feltham.</p><p> </p><p>A number of initiatives have recently been implemented to tackle violence and drive performance improvements within the Youth Estate. A holistic style approach to managing behaviour within the youth estate has led to the implementation of Minimising and Managing Physical Restraint (MMPR) in all under-18 Young Offender Institutions (YOI) and Secure Training Centres. In public sector Young Offender Institutions, local psychological teams have been put in place to carry out assessments of young people involved in multiple perpetrator/serious assaults. A new structured approach to the delivery of interventions for young people has been introduced to ensure that interventions delivered are either accredited or formally approved. Restorative justice practises have also been rolled out.</p><p> </p><p>At Feltham specifically, we have around 100 new officers currently in training - with the first officers on the landings in April - helping to get to the root causes of violence and improve safety.</p><p>In addition, the first Enhanced Support Unit within the Youth Estate opened at Feltham in November 2017 to support and manage young people who are deemed to have exceptionally complex needs and high-risk behaviours.</p>
