We are aware there is a persistent minority who seek to spread misinformation about vaccinations. The Department for Health and Social Care is working with the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport to explore actions to address this and a range of other online harms, including working with platforms. Collaboration with the Department for Education is underway to ensure pupils understand that vaccines protect against diseases which can cause serious long-term ill-health, including mental and/or physical disability, and death.<\/p>
<\/p>
Public Health England annual surveys show parents have high levels of confidence in the national childhood immunisation programme and trust the advice about vaccination that comes from the National Health Service and health care workers. In contrast, trust in social media is much lower. However, we are not complacent and continue to look for ways to improve vaccine coverage and promote the facts relating to the value of immunisation and vaccination.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4065", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Thurrock"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Jackie Doyle-Price"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-03-26", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-03-26T17:16:31.997Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-03-18", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Vaccination: Disinformation"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps he is taking to tackle anti-vaccine misinformation.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1447", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Andrew Rosindell"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Romford"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Andrew Rosindell"} ], "uin" : "233488"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1091091", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health and Social Care"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1091091/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
There are comprehensive controls in place throughout the food chain to reduce the levels of contamination in chicken being sold in supermarkets and other locations. These controls include, for example, the national salmonella control programme for broiler chickens at all stages of production, which defines a range of measures to reduce the risk of Salmonella. The Food Standards Agency has also worked closely with industry on reducing Campylobacter contamination over a number of years. This has seen the highest contamination levels of Campylobacter fall from an average of 19% in 2014/15 to 5% in 2016/17 in surveys undertaken at retail level. Latest levels according to major retailers\u2019 data show an average of 3.1% for October-December 2018.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4065", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Thurrock"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Jackie Doyle-Price"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-03-26", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-03-26T17:21:27.08Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-03-18", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Poultry: Contamination"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps he is taking to reduce the incidence of contaminated chicken being sold at supermarkets.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1447", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Andrew Rosindell"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Romford"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Andrew Rosindell"} ], "uin" : "233489"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1091092", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Education"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1091092/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The Government is committed to increasing the number of pupils taking science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) subjects including those from disadvantaged backgrounds. There were 47,000 more exam entries to STEM A levels in 2018 compared to 2010, which is an increase of 23%.<\/p>
Good teaching is essential to increase take-up of STEM subjects. The Department funds a number of programmes to support this aim. These programmes include specific focus on schools with the greatest need, including those in disadvantaged areas. This includes the £76 million of funding that the Department provides for the network of maths hubs and the Teaching for Mastery programme, which aims to reach 11,000 primary and secondary schools by 2023 and has specific focus to support schools in greatest need. It also includes the Advanced Mathematics Support Programme, which aims to increase participation and attainment in level 3 mathematics with a focus on schools from disadvantaged areas, including schools in Opportunity Areas.<\/p>
In November 2018, the Department launched a new National Centre for Computing Education, (NCCE) supported by £84 million of funding until July 2022. The aim of the NCCE is to improve the quality of the teaching of computing. This programme will help improve take-up and attainment of computing at GCSE and A level, with a focus on schools in disadvantaged areas.<\/p>
The Department also funds the national network of Science Learning Partnerships, which supports science teachers to improve the quality of science teaching, as well as the Stimulating Physics Network, which aims to increase participation in A level physics, particularly among girls. The department currently has plans to build 23 special schools within local authority areas in London. These schools will collectively provide over 2000 new places for children with special educational needs. This includes 5 successful local authority bids announced on 11 March 2019 from wave 2 of the local authority commissioned special free school process. The trust competitions are open for these 5 and successful proposer groups will be announced in winter 2019-20.<\/p> <\/p> The number of schools planned in each local authority area is as follows:<\/p> <\/p> <\/p> <\/p> Barking and Dagenham<\/p><\/td> 2<\/p><\/td> <\/p><\/td> Hounslow<\/p><\/td> 1<\/p><\/td><\/tr> Barnet<\/p><\/td> 1<\/p><\/td> <\/p><\/td> Kingston upon Thames<\/p><\/td> 1<\/p><\/td><\/tr> Bexley<\/p><\/td> 2<\/p><\/td> <\/p><\/td> Lambeth<\/p><\/td> 1<\/p><\/td><\/tr> Brent<\/p><\/td> 1<\/p><\/td> <\/p><\/td> Newham<\/p><\/td> 1<\/p><\/td><\/tr> Bromley<\/p><\/td> 1<\/p><\/td> <\/p><\/td> Redridge<\/p><\/td> 1<\/p><\/td><\/tr> Croydon<\/p><\/td> 1<\/p><\/td> <\/p><\/td> Richmond upon Thames<\/p><\/td> 2<\/p><\/td><\/tr> Enfield<\/p><\/td> 1<\/p><\/td> <\/p><\/td> Southwark<\/p><\/td> 1<\/p><\/td><\/tr> Havering<\/p><\/td> 1<\/p><\/td> <\/p><\/td> Sutton<\/p><\/td> 2<\/p><\/td><\/tr> Hillingdon<\/p><\/td> 3<\/p><\/td> <\/p><\/td> <\/p><\/td> <\/p><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>"}
