Local authorities and academy trusts are responsible for their own contracts. Information available to the Department indicates that the number of local authority and academy trust schools covered by catering contracts with Interserve subsidiaries, is relatively low.<\/p>

As Interserve has stated publicly, its business will continue to operate as normal for customers and suppliers. The operating companies of Interserve have not entered administration and will be unaffected.

In November 2018, we published details of our progress against the public sector apprenticeship target for the first year of the target. These can be viewed at the following link: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/public-sector-apprenticeships-in-england-2017-to-2018<\/a>.<\/p>

This showed that, in the National Health Service (NHS), 1.2% of employees started an apprenticeship between 1 April 2017 and 31 March 2018, which is 13,800 new starts. It should be noted that this data is based on self-declared information on organisation headcounts and apprentice recruitment submitted by public sector bodies.<\/p>

The department also publishes data on apprenticeship starts in the health, public services and care sector subject area. This includes the number of starts on the \u2018Registered Nurse\u2019 degree apprenticeship and \u2018Nursing Associate\u2019 apprenticeship standards.<\/p>

Monthly breakdowns for individual standards and frameworks, as well as for sector subject areas, have been published from 2014/15 onwards and can be accessed at the link below: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/apprenticeship-and-levy-statistics-february-2019<\/a>.<\/p>

The Department for Education and the Department of Health and Social Care are working closely with employers and Health Education England to make sure that the NHS is fully supported to recruit the apprentices they need to deliver high quality care.<\/p>

The Department used a selective tender process for contracting a drafter. This approach was taken so that this non-statutory model music curriculum can be made available before the end of the summer term. The Department ran the procurement in accordance with Government procurement rules, which allow for selective tendering for requirements valued below £20,000.<\/p>

The Incorporated Society of Musicians and Music Mark were invited to bid as the two UK music subject associations. The Associated Board for the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM) was invited to bid as the largest music education body in the UK.<\/p>

The Department has received offers from practitioners to participate in development of the model curriculum. As part of their work, the expert panel and the lead drafter have been drawing on input from members of the teaching profession and from wider music organisations. This will continue to be the case throughout the duration of the development process. The model music curriculum will build on and will not conflict with the statutory music curriculum.<\/p>

The Department used a selective tender process for contracting a drafter. This approach was taken so that this non-statutory model music curriculum can be made available before the end of the summer term. The Department ran the procurement in accordance with Government procurement rules, which allow for selective tendering for requirements valued below £20,000.<\/p>

The Incorporated Society of Musicians and Music Mark were invited to bid as the two UK music subject associations. The Associated Board for the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM) was invited to bid as the largest music education body in the UK.<\/p>

The Department has received offers from practitioners to participate in development of the model curriculum. As part of their work, the expert panel and the lead drafter have been drawing on input from members of the teaching profession and from wider music organisations. This will continue to be the case throughout the duration of the development process. The model music curriculum will build on and will not conflict with the statutory music curriculum.<\/p>
