answer text <p>Starring up is the term used to define the process whereby young people under the age of 18 can be moved into the young adult estate prior to their eighteenth birthday. The starring up process can be used for a range of reasons, but past usage has mainly been in relating to the management of disruptive or violent behaviour or transfers to Mother and Baby Units.</p><br /><p>In practice, the starring up process is rarely used and then only in exceptional circumstances.</p><br /><p>No young person has been starred-up into the young adult estate since January 2014.

answer text <p>Learning and skills at HMP Wormwood Scrubs has been delivered by a number of providers, through contracts let by the Skills Funding Agency, during this period. For the academic years 2010/11 and 2011/12, the Offender Learning and Skills Service (OLASS) contract for London was held by Kensington and Chelsea College. For the academic years 2012/13, 2013/14 and the first part of 2014/15, the OLASS contract was held by A4e Ltd. From 2 February 2015, The Manchester College has held the OLASS contract for London.</p><p>The Skills Funding Agency introduced funding changes that base payment to providers on learner achievement when new prison education contracts (OLASS4) commenced in August 2012. Prior to this, providers were paid on the basis of the teaching hours they were programmed to deliver. Direct comparisons between OLASS funding prior to the 2012/13 academic year and now cannot be made.</p><p>The table below sets out OLASS initial contract values for HMP Wormwood Scrubs from the 2012/13 academic year.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>Academic Year</p></td><td><p>OLASS initial contract values for HMP Wormwood Scrubs</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2012/13</p></td><td><p>£1,112,600</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2013/14</p></td><td><p>£1,581,000</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2014/15</p></td><td><p>£1,360,600</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p><strong>Notes:</strong></p><p> </p><p>1) Figures rounded to nearest 000s</p><p> </p><p>2) In 2012/13 the Agency did not include details of prison level allocations within its contract documentation.
