On 9 April 2018, the Home Office published a new \u2018Serious Violence Strategy\u2019, available in the Libraries of both Houses, including 61 recommendations spanning cross government departments to take action to address serious violence, and in particular, the recent increases in knife crime, gun crime and homicide. The strategy puts a stronger emphasis on steering young people away from violence, helping them to change their behaviour and actions before they reach the stage where they are at risk of entering the criminal justice system.<\/p>
The Department for Education is making relationships education compulsory in all primary schools, relationships and sex education compulsory in all secondary schools and health education compulsory in all state-funded schools. Under the new reforms, the draft guidance, attached, sets out that pupils should develop positive, respectful relationships, including with their peers; and that violence is never acceptable. The draft guidance also covers awareness of violence and exploitation by gangs, as well as criminal exploitation, for example through gang involvement or \u2018county lines\u2019 drugs operations.<\/p>
<\/p>
Citizenship education also helps to provide pupils with knowledge, skills and understanding to prepare them to play a full and active part in society \u2013 including an understanding of the role of law and the justice system in our society and how laws are shaped and enforced.<\/p>
<\/p>
In addition, the \u2018Keeping Children Safe in Education\u2019 statutory guidance, attached, sets out the legal duties that all schools must have regard to when carrying out their duties to safeguard and promote the welfare of children.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4689", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Agnew of Oulton"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Lord Agnew of Oulton"} , "attachment" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1005636/answer/attachment/1", "fileName" : {"_value" : "HL11407_draft_guidance_relationships_education.pdf"} , "title" : "HL11407_draft_guidance_relationships_education"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1005636/answer/attachment/2", "fileName" : {"_value" : "HL11407_Keeping_Children_Safe_in_Education__3_September_2018_14.09.18.pdf"} , "title" : "HL11407_Keeping_Children_Safe_in_Education__3_Sept"} ], "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-11-26", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-11-26T12:30:18.63Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "60"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Education"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Education"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-11-12", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Children: Crime Prevention"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Her Majesty's Government what education programmes (1) are in place, and (2) they intend to put in place, to enable schools and families to engage with children to prevent their becoming involved in criminality, gangs and violent behaviour.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/2170", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Ouseley"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Lord Ouseley"} ], "uin" : "HL11407"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1005758", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Education"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1005758/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
