The Cadet Expansion Programme aimed to have 500 cadet units parading in schools by March 2020. This target was met five months early in November 2019. The Government\u2019s ambition is to now grow the number of cadets attending these units to 60,000 by 2024.<\/p>
<\/p>
COVID-19 caused the closure of all secondary schools and the suspension of all face-to-face cadet activity from 17 March. Restarting activity in school cadet units will be at the Headteachers\u2019 discretion, subject to Government guidance and will be secondary to efforts to return schools to normal service.<\/p>
<\/p>
Cadet training personnel from the Services will be available to support school cadet units in returning to activity when Headteachers decide the time is right.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4306", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Baroness Goldie"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Baroness Goldie"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2020-06-15", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2020-06-15T14:31:09.37Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "11"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Defence"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Defence"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2020-06-08", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Armed Forces: Cadets"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "Her Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on the attainment of Cadet Expansion Programme targets.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4194", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Lingfield"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Lord Lingfield"} ], "uin" : "HL5386"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1201078", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1201078/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
It is vital that diversity is promoted in all levels of sport and the Government is committed to doing so.<\/p>
<\/strong><\/p> The Government, through Sport England, is investing £2 million per year into the FA to support their work in ensuring the coaching workforce in football is more representative of wider society. This includes providing bursaries to develop coaching abilities from the grassroots to the elite levels of the game.<\/p> <\/strong><\/p> Government's sport and physical activity strategy \u2018Sporting Future: A New Strategy for an Active Nation\u2019 has diversity and inclusion at its heart.
