We want to increase the number of nursing apprenticeships and now have a complete apprentice pathway from entry level to postgraduate advanced clinical practice in nursing. This will support people from all backgrounds to enter a nursing career in the National Health Service (NHS).<\/p>
<\/p>
We are working closely with employers, Health Education England and ministers in the Department of Health and Social Care to make sure the NHS is fully supported to recruit apprentices, both in nursing and in a range of various occupations.<\/p>"}

Officials at the Department have held a number of discussions with the Confederation of British Industry, the Federation of Small Businesses and the British Chamber of Commerce with the purpose of increasing awareness and understanding of the new GCSEs. The Department has also worked with these organisations to communicate the new GCSE grading scale to employers, via the Department\u2019s online factsheets and videos.<\/p>
Ofqual, the independent qualifications regulator, has also worked with these organisations and other employer groups to support employer understanding. Ofqual published a report on perceptions of the new GCSEs in April 2018. The findings showed that awareness amongst businesses of the 9 to 1 grading scale had doubled from 32% in the previous survey in April 2017, to 68% this year.<\/p>
Ministers regularly meet employer groups to discuss a range of issues.<\/p>"}

Schools are responsible for designing a broad and balanced curriculum that will allow students to fulfil their potential and move on to the next stage of education and training.<\/p>
To support breadth in the curriculum, the Department has designed school accountability measures that recognise academic qualifications (GCSEs) as well as technical and vocational qualifications (primarily Technical Awards). The Progress 8 measure has an academic core, but also rewards pupils\u2019 study of up to three approved Technical Awards.<\/p>
The Department has reviewed the list of qualifications that count towards performance tables to ensure that all approved qualifications, including Technical Awards, are high quality and support students\u2019 progression.<\/p>
Technical Awards are high quality level 1 and 2 qualifications that provide 14-16 year olds with applied knowledge and practical skills not usually acquired through GCSEs. There are 57 Technical Awards currently approved for inclusion in the 2020 performance tables and for teaching from September 2018. To be included in performance tables, qualifications must meet strict requirements regarding their size, the use of external assessment and synoptic assessment, and their grading structure.<\/p>"}

The Children Act 1989 provides the framework for the English child protection system and sets the basic national threshold for statutory intervention in family life. The specific criteria are set by local authorities\u2019 who have the overarching responsibility for safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all children in their area, and are best placed to set thresholds suited to the needs of local children and families. To support local areas and professionals in discharging their responsibility, the government issues statutory guidance on \u2018Working Together to Safeguard Children\u2019, which was updated earlier this month.<\/p>
The \u2018Working Together to Safeguard Children\u2019 (2018) guidance is available here: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/722305/Working_Together_to_Safeguard_Children_-_Guide.pdf<\/a>.<\/p>"}
