The Department considers the health and safety of staff and pupils in school as paramount. Since 2015, the Department has allocated £5.6 billion to those responsible for school buildings and for essential maintenance, including removing or encapsulating asbestos when it is the safest course of action to do so. In addition, through the £4.4 billion Priority School Building Programme, the Department is rebuilding or refurbishing buildings in the worst condition in over 500 schools across the country. Asbestos is a factor in choosing which schools to re-build.<\/p>
Advice from the Health and Safety Executive is that if asbestos is unlikely to be damaged or disturbed, then it is best managed in situ. The blanket and accelerated removal of asbestos in schools is potentially a more dangerous and greater risk to pupils and staff. Any decision to remove asbestos is taken on a case by case basis, based on the risk of exposure and the work to be undertaken. While asbestos will be removed over time from the school estate as part of any rebuilding or refurbishment programme, the Department has not committed to the phased removal of all asbestos by a specific date.<\/p>"}

The Department does not hold information centrally on the number of pupils who have been officially taken off roll by schools. Local authorities have a duty to make arrangements to establish the identities of children of compulsory school age in their area who are not registered pupils at a school and are not otherwise receiving suitable education.<\/p>
The law is clear that a pupil\u2019s name can only be deleted from the admission register on the grounds prescribed in regulation 8 of the Education (Pupil Registration) (England) Regulations 2006 as amended. All schools must notify the local authority when a pupil\u2019s name is to be deleted from the admission register under any of the grounds prescribed in regulation 8.<\/p>"}

Widening participation to higher education is a priority for this government. We want everyone with the capability to succeed in higher education to have the opportunity to benefit from a university education, regardless of their background or where they grew up.<\/p>
In our first guidance to the Office for Students (OfS), we identified certain target groups, including students with specific learning needs or disabilities, as we recognise that they require specific support for accessing and succeeding in higher education. Through access agreements (now known as access and participation plans), which have been agreed with the OfS, higher education providers are expected to reduce the gaps in access, success and progression for under-represented groups amongst their students.<\/p>
Through the access and participation plans for the period of 2018 to 2019, universities and further education colleges plan to spend more than £860 million on measures to improve access and student success for students from under-represented groups and disadvantaged backgrounds. This amount has significantly increased from the planned expenditure of £404 million in 2009.<\/p>
Prior attainment is a critical factor and we are asking higher education providers to take on a more direct role in helping to raise attainment in schools as part of their outreach activity. We expect all universities to help raise attainment and support school improvement, including through school sponsorship and establishing new state schools.<\/p>

It is the responsibility of individual schools to ensure that they meet their statutory obligations to teach religious education.<\/p>
If an individual has concerns that a school may not be meeting its duty to provide religious education, they should first follow that school\u2019s complaint procedure. If the complaint is not resolved, then the issue can be escalated to the Department\u2019s School Complaints Unit for maintained schools, or the Education and Skills Funding Agency for academies, free schools, university technical colleges or studio schools. Information about school complaint procedures can be found here: www.gov.uk/complain-about-school<\/a>.<\/p> <\/p>
The Secretary of State for Education has a range of powers to ensure schools comply with their statutory obligations. The exact powers used will depend on the nature of the statutory duty in question and the potential impact of any failure to comply. The powers used could include a direction under 497 of the Education Act 1996, a performance and standards warning notice under the Education and Inspections Act 2006 and a referral to Ofsted for an inspection. Where academies are subject to the same statutory duties as maintained schools, the Secretary of State has powers to enforce compliance via the terms of the funding agreement.<\/p>
