answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/04/2014 answer text <p>The 2013 Spending Round confirmed the levels of capital funding that the Department for Education will receive between 2015 and 2021. This settlement will enable the Department to develop a long-term approach, allowing us to consider making allocations over a number of years, which would help schools, sixth-form colleges and their responsible bodies to plan with greater confidence.</p><p>I am clear that in future years our funding should be better targeted to where it is most needed, and it is for this reason that the Department is currently collecting up to date information on the condition of school buildings, including sixth-form colleges, through a comprehensive survey. This survey is due to be completed by the summer and it is our intention that the results will be used to inform the allocation of capital maintenance funding from 2015-16.</p> answering member constituency Yeovil answering member printed Mr David Laws question first answered 03/04/2014 12:00:00 answering member 1473 label Biography information for Mr David Laws

question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what recent assessment he has made of the adequacy of cancer awareness education in schools.
tabling member constituency	Eastleigh
tabling member printed	Mr Michael Thornton
uin	194491
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/04/2014 answer text <p>Cancer awareness is important for all young people. However, I do not believe that there should be a statutory requirement for it to be taught in schools. The Government aims to reduce prescription throughout the education system, and trusts schools to provide what is best for their students. The Department for Education does not collect data on this topic.</p><p>Schools are free to teach cancer awareness when it is relevant to the national curriculum. For example, the science curriculum requires pupils to learn about the effects of drugs on their bodies, and the importance of physical activity and a healthy lifestyle is included in the requirements for physical education. In design and technology, schools may highlight the importance of nutrition and a healthy diet. Schools may include cancer awareness as part of personal, social, health and economic (PSHE) education, using suitable resources from relevant organisations. The PSHE Association has produced a suggested programme of study as guidance for teachers, and continues to highlight other sources of expertise.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency South West Norfolk answering member printed Elizabeth Truss grouped question UIN 194325 194537 question first answered 03/04/2014 12:00:00 answering member 4097 label Biography information for Elizabeth Truss
