answer text <p>The department is committed to ensuring claimants receive high quality assessments. We set our assessment providers challenging targets and monitor performance closely against a range of measures including through independent audit to improve accuracy and decision making. Contractual remedies are in place if assessment providers fail to deliver against the service standards.</p><p>Contractual remedies for underperformance against a range of service levels are recovered through service credit mechanisms and through deductions of payments (a ‘No Pay’ mechanism). The extent of underperformance and application of related mechanisms varies significantly and the regularity of such remedies should not be seen as a measure of overall performance.</p><p>In relation to the HDAS contract covering Work Capability Assessments, service credits (the contractual remedy for SC1 – Quality) have been applied in 12 out of the 14 months from June 2018 to July 2019 (the date of the most recent statistical information available).</p><p>In relation to the Personal Independence Payment contracts, “No Pay” (the contractual remedy for SC1 – Quality) has been applied in one or more Lots in each month from June 18 to June 19 (the date of the most recent statistical information available).</p><p>Below is the breakdown of the totals by Lot:</p><p>Lot 1 – No pay was applied to SC1 in 8 of those months</p><p>Lot 2 – No pay was applied to SC1 in 5 of those months</p><p>Lot 3 – No pay was applied to SC1 in 11 of those months.</p>

answer text <p>The United Nations Sports for Climate Action Framework and Declaration is a welcome voluntary initiative which encourages sports organisations to make their own contribution to the Paris Agreement goal of achieving a low carbon future. It is a matter for individual sports organisations themselves whether they wish to participate in the Framework and sign up to the Declaration. We welcome that both the All England Lawn Tennis Club and The Rugby League World Cup 2021 have done so. The Government is fully committed to the Paris Agreement, and since the year 2000 we have decarbonised our economy more quickly than any other country in the G20.</p> more like this

answer text <p>An increasing proportion of schools and colleges have an individual who leads on mental health as part of their role. In 2018, 82% of schools and 91% of further education colleges had a mental health lead.</p><p> </p><p>The department is supporting the uptake of senior mental health lead roles by providing training. Subject to contract procurement, this training will be available from June 2020 and available to all state-funded schools and colleges by 2025. The precise level of commitment to complete training will be determined during the development of the training, shaped by the needs of senior leads.</p><p>Training will be prioritised in the first instance within schools and colleges selected to work with Mental Health Support Teams, which were chosen as part of the commitments made by the government in its response to ‘Transforming Children and Young People’s Mental Health: A Green Paper’, attached.

answer text <p>The statutory guidance on relationships education, relationships and sex education and health education was published in June 2019. In health education, there is a strong focus on mental wellbeing, including a recognition that mental wellbeing and physical health are linked. Emotional literacy at primary and secondary levels is included throughout all 3 subjects, and particularly when covering topics on mental health and wellbeing.</p><p> </p><p>Schools have flexibility to design and plan age-appropriate subject content. In health education, the guidance sets out core areas for health and wellbeing for primary and secondary aged pupils; including topics such as mental wellbeing, physical health and fitness, healthy eating, harmful substances, health and prevention and basic first aid.</p><p> </p><p>The department is currently working with teachers and schools to determine how support and training for these subjects should be structured. Our programme of support will focus on tools that improve schools’ practice, such as implementation guidance and targeted support; training materials; and resources that teachers need to teach the new subjects effectively.</p><p> </p><p>To provide further support for schools to build the capability to identify and promote awareness of mental health needs, the government committed in January 2017 to make available mental health awareness training to one member of staff in all state secondary schools by 2020, and all state primary schools by 2022. The 3 year secondary schools’ mental health awareness training programme started in 2017 and was delivered for the first 2 years by Mental Health First Aid England. In 2019, the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) and the Department for Education (DfE) announced that the final year of the secondary school mental health training programme will be delivered by the Anna Freud National Centre for Children and Families. The DHSC are currently considering options on how best to deliver the mental health awareness training in primary schools.</p><p> </p><p>The DfE is currently recruiting a provider to develop and deliver a new mental health training programme for senior mental health leads in schools and colleges. We expect to be able to announce the outcome of this process in 2020. Subject to contract award, training delivery will commence from June 2020.</p><p> </p>
