DESCRIPTORS Adult Basic Education; *Correctional Education; *Correctional Institutions; Correctional Rehabilitation; Criminals; *Educational History; Foreign Countries; Postsecondary Education; Prisoners; Prison Libraries; Rehabilitation Programs; Secondary Education; Vocational Rehabilitation IDENTIFIERS *England; *Wales ABSTRACT In response to prison disturbances in England and Wales in the late 1980s, the education program for prisoners was improved and more prisoners were given access to educational services. Although education is a relatively new phenomenon in the English and Welsh penal system, by the 20th century, education had become an integral part of prison life. It served partly as a control mechanism and partly for more altruistic needs. Until 1993 the management and delivery of education and training in prisons was carried out by local education authority staff. Since that time, the education responsibility has been contracted out to organizations such as the Staff College, other universities, and private training organizations. Various policy implications were resolved in order to allow these organizations to provide prison education. Today, prison education programs are probably the most comprehensive of any found in the country. They may range from literacy education to postgraduate study, with students ranging in age from 15 to over 65. The curriculum focuses on social and life skills. -

Friday 30 October 2015 SCOTTISH GOVERNMENT Learning and Justice Graeme Pearson (South Scotland) (Scottish Labour): To ask the Scottish Government how many prisoners have been prescribed methadone in each year since 2006-07, broken down by prison. (S4W-27817) Paul Wheelhouse: The following table provides a snapshot of data relating to the numbers of prisoners prescribed with methadone in each prison in Scotland from May 2006. This data is a count of the number of prisoners recorded as receiving a methadone prescription on a single day. This information was gathered by Scottish Prison Service (SPS) and the NHS to provide an indicative figure of the number of people in prisons in receipt of methadone. This data was collected by SPS up until 2010. There is a hiatus in data collection (2011-13) following the transfer of service provision from SPS to NHS, however, this data is now being collected twice a year by National Prisoner Healthcare Network. Further work is currently underway to determine the most effective model for incorporating and delivering the requirements which will allow future detailed reporting.
