All of these absences can also be as a result of personal matters and causes that have no connection with work.</p><p> </p><p>HMPPS offers staff 24/7 access to an Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) helpline which can be used for issues related to either work or home. The helpline is strictly confidential, and reports are not shared with employees’ manager or Department. Employees can also refer themselves for confidential counselling for work-related reasons or any other reasons. CBT and EMDR therapies are offered to staff who have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder caused by work-related trauma.</p><p> </p><p>We are introducing Trauma Risk Management (TRiM), currently used effectively by the police, ambulance and fire services, to identify and signpost those staff to ensure they get the support they require. This approach has been trialled in the 10 prisons project with much success and this is planned to roll out to prisons, over the next two years.</p><p> </p><p>Absences caused by exposure to new psychoactive substances (NPS) can be as a result of exposure at work or elsewhere. Any staff who are exposed to toxic substances while at work are directed to emergency medical treatment as appropriate. Should this result in absence from work they are referred to Occupational Health by their line manager and any necessary work adjustments will be made. Staff can also self-refer to EAP for counselling.</p><p> </p><p>We are investing an extra £70 million in making prisons more secure and decent, and are giving officers tools like PAVA pepper spray and body-worn cameras to make their jobs safer. This includes £16 million to improve conditions for prisoners and staff and £7 million on new security measures such as body scanners to bring down levels of drugs and violence.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency South East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Lucy Frazer question first answered 03/09/2019 14:31:16 answering member 4517 label Biography information for Lucy Frazer

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/09/2019 answer text <p>The Government is committed to continuing to raise literacy standards – ensuring all children, including those from disadvantaged backgrounds, can read fluently and with understanding.</p><p>There is sound evidence that systematic synthetic phonics is a highly effective method of teaching reading to children. The Department introduced the light touch phonics screening check for Year 1 pupils in 2012. Phonics performance is improving: in 2018, 163,000 more six year olds were on track to become fluent readers compared to 2012. This represented 82% of pupils meeting the expected standard, compared to 58% in 2012.</p><p>Building on this success, in 2018 the Department launched a £26.3 million English Hubs Programme. The Department has appointed 34 primary schools across England as English Hubs, which are taking a leading role in supporting nearly 3000 schools to improve their teaching of reading through systematic synthetic phonics, early language development, and reading for pleasure. The English Hubs are primarily focused on Key Stage 1 and focus on supporting schools with high levels of disadvantage.</p> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb question first answered 04/09/2019 16:53:13 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb
