Staff working at private prisons are employed by a number of providers, to deliver a range of services. These include, for example, probation services, education and healthcare, as well as custodial services. While each prison is managed by a main contracted provider, it is not possible to provide information covering workforce staff employed by all these providers.<\/p>

On average each prison custody officer receives 45 days of training before commencing officer duties.

Under the Offender Learning and Skills Service (OLASS) arrangements, vocational and other courses at Level 3 are available to adults in prisons across England.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

In addition to OLASS provision, higher education is also available. Most prisoners who study at that level do so via the Open University.<\/p>

Learning and skills at HMP Wormwood Scrubs has been delivered by a number of providers, through contracts let by the Skills Funding Agency, during this period. For the academic years 2010/11 and 2011/12, the Offender Learning and Skills Service (OLASS) contract for London was held by Kensington and Chelsea College. For the academic years 2012/13, 2013/14 and the first part of 2014/15, the OLASS contract was held by A4e Ltd. From 2 February 2015, The Manchester College has held the OLASS contract for London.<\/p>

The Skills Funding Agency introduced funding changes that base payment to providers on learner achievement when new prison education contracts (OLASS4) commenced in August 2012. Prior to this, providers were paid on the basis of the teaching hours they were programmed to deliver. Direct comparisons between OLASS funding prior to the 2012/13 academic year and now cannot be made.<\/p>

The table below sets out OLASS initial contract values for HMP Wormwood Scrubs from the 2012/13 academic year.<\/p>

Art, Design and Media Studies were taught at HMP Wormwood Scrubs as part of the OLASS learning offer during the first part of the 1014/15 academic year: there was no art, design and media department at the prison. Following an Ofsted inspection and a curriculum review, a local decision was taken to withdraw provision for art, design and media studies and to focus delivery more on maths and English. We do not hold prison-level learner enrolment information centrally.<\/p>
