answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/03/2019 answer text <p>The Government has committed £7 billion of funding for school places between 2015 and 2021, on top of investment in the free schools programme. The school system is on track to create 1 million places this decade, the largest increase in school capacity for at least two generations.</p><p>The Department collects pupil forecasts, existing school capacities, and plans to deliver additional school places from each local authority via the annual school capacity survey. Information from local authorities, together with information on centrally funded projects to add places, such as new free schools, is used to produce estimates of the future need for school places.</p><p>The latest available estimates show that the 20 secondary planning areas within Nottinghamshire may require an additional 997 secondary school places by 2023/24 in order to meet forecast demand, of which Mansfield Secondary planning area may require 82 additional secondary school places.</p><p>The latest published data held relates to the position in the 2016/17 academic year and includes secondary forecasts to 2023/24. Data for the 2017/2018 academic year are due to be published on 28 March 2019.</p><p>Basic need allocations are based upon data supplied by local authorities themselves so there should be no shortfall between the number of places local authorities report they need to create, and the number the Department is funding.</p><p>Table 1: <br>Forecast secondary places needed in Nottinghamshire by planning area (modelled estimates)[1], [2]</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>Secondary Planning Area</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2017/18</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2018/19</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2019/20</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2020/21</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2021/22</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2022/23</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2023/24</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>Nottinghamshire Total</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>375</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>418</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>628</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>676</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>891</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>897</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>997</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Arnold Secondary</p></td><td><p>16</p></td><td><p>34</p></td><td><p>76</p></td><td><p>111</p></td><td><p>95</p></td><td><p>141</p></td><td><p>139</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Broxtowe North Secondary</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>34</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Broxtowe South Secondary</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Carlton Secondary</p></td><td><p>57</p></td><td><p>111</p></td><td><p>114</p></td><td><p>115</p></td><td><p>167</p></td><td><p>187</p></td><td><p>220</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>East Leake Secondary</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>28</p></td><td><p>27</p></td><td><p>27</p></td><td><p>26</p></td><td><p>26</p></td><td><p>0</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Gedling Secondary</p></td><td><p>33</p></td><td><p>50</p></td><td><p>88</p></td><td><p>68</p></td><td><p>111</p></td><td><p>129</p></td><td><p>131</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Harworth/Bircotes Secondary</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Hucknall Secondary</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>10</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Kirkby/Sutton Secondary</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Mansfield Secondary</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p>74</p></td><td><p>35</p></td><td><p>82</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Newark Secondary</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Rainworth Secondary</p></td><td><p>53</p></td><td><p>68</p></td><td><p>89</p></td><td><p>103</p></td><td><p>141</p></td><td><p>150</p></td><td><p>175</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Retford Secondary</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Rushcliffe East Secondary</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p>15</p></td><td><p>47</p></td><td><p>87</p></td><td><p>92</p></td><td><p>45</p></td><td><p>14</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Rushcliffe Secondary</p></td><td><p>22</p></td><td><p>53</p></td><td><p>73</p></td><td><p>86</p></td><td><p>108</p></td><td><p>100</p></td><td><p>91</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Selston Secondary</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Southwell Secondary</p></td><td><p>17</p></td><td><p>12</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Warsop Secondary</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>West Bridgford Secondary</p></td><td><p>169</p></td><td><p>47</p></td><td><p>77</p></td><td><p>71</p></td><td><p>61</p></td><td><p>22</p></td><td><p>17</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Worksop Secondary</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>13</p></td><td><p>63</p></td><td><p>119</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p>Figures are rounded to the nearest whole number; therefore do not add up to the sum total.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>[1] The data provide a snapshot in time at 1 May 2017.

tabling member constituency	Mansfield

uin	226752
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/03/2019 answer text <p>The Government is committed to ensuring everyone with an eating disorder has access to timely treatment based on clinical need. Early intervention is crucial when helping people with an eating disorder, this is why we set up the first waiting times to improve access to eating disorders services for children and young people - so that by 2020/21 95% of children with an eating disorder will receive treatment within one week for urgent cases and within four weeks for routine cases and latest figures indicate that the National Health Service is on track to meet that standard.</p><p> </p><p>For children and young people aged between eight and 18 years, the Government is investing £150 million to expand eating disorder services and staff for 70 extended or newly established community eating disorder services. This has led to swift access to effective eating disorder treatment in the community, with the number of children and young people accessing treatment increasing from 5,243 in 2016/17 to 6,867 in 2017/18.</p><p> </p><p>The NHS Long Term Plan commits to “test four-week waiting times for adult and older adult community mental health teams, with selected local areas”. The exact scope and timelines of these pilots are yet to be finalised but we envisage that this will include testing waiting times for adult eating disorder services in those areas in receipt of new funding to expand these services.</p> answering member constituency Thurrock answering member printed Jackie Doyle-Price question first answered 07/03/2019 12:16:58 answering member 4065 label Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price
