We continue to engage with local authorities and others to test, refine and promote these resources.</p><p> </p><p>In addition to our statutory duty to publish annual data on the statutory indicators of parental worklessness and children’s educational achievement, we will also publish the latest data on the non-statutory indicators each year, in line with the commitment set out in <em>Improving Lives: Helping Workless Families. </em></p> answering member constituency Gosport answering member printed Caroline Dinenage question first answered 21/12/2017 11:58:26 answering member 4008 label Biography information for Dame Caroline Dinenage
