[123170] David Laws (Minister for State) : The Government are committed to increasing the take-up of free school meals for all pupils who are entitled to them. We want disadvantaged children to benefit from a nutritious meal, and for their schools to receive extra funding through the pupil premium in order to help them to raise the attainment of these pupils. Identifying which children are entitled to free school meals can be difficult, and something we are seeking to address as part of our reforms to eligibility for free school meals from 2013. A child is only eligible for free school meals if his or her parent is in receipt of an eligible benefit and an application to receive a free school meal has been made. It is not possible to identify those pupils who are entitled to free school meals who have not made an application. We have therefore taken a number of steps to encourage parents to apply for free school meals. Our funding for the School Food Trust enables it to carry out work to improve the take-up of healthy, school lunches, and specifically to increase take-up of free school meals. The School Food Trust's "Free School Meals Matter Toolkit" provides schools with information and advice to help them to encourage all eligible pupils to register for, and take, their free school meal. We have streamlined the application process by developing an online eligibility checking service (ECS), which allows local authorities to check data held by the Department for Work and Pensions, HM Revenue and Customs, and the Home Office to establish a family's free school meal eligibility quickly. We are encouraging local authorities to increase their use of this resource, which, as well as reducing bureaucracy and cost at a local level, encourages more parents to sign up their children for a free school lunch. For those authorities that choose to use it, the ECS allows parents to check their own eligibility and to apply online for free school meals. In November 2011, we further encouraged take-up by sending registration messages to parents, schools and local authorities. The school census figures published on 21 June 2012 show that registration for free school meals increased by 0.1% in both primary and secondary schools nationally. The Department will shortly be publishing a Research Report "Pupils not claiming Free School Meals", showing estimates of the numbers of pupils who are entitled to free school meals, but are not claiming them, living in each local authority. Back to top Obesity – House of Commons: Written Answers – 22 October Gloria De Piero (Labour, Ashfield): To ask the Secretary of State for Health how many people (a) under 16, (b) aged between 18 and 24, (c) aged between 25 and 64 and (d) aged 65 years and over in (i) Ashfield, (ii) Nottinghamshire, (iii) the East Midlands and (iv) England were treated for obesity-related illnesses in each of the last five years. [123690] Anna Soubry (Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Health): The information requested is not collected in the format requested. The Health and Social Care Information Centre has provided a count of finished admission episodes(1) with a primary diagnosis of obesity(2) for England, East Midlands Strategic Health Authority(3) (SHA) and Nottinghamshire County Teaching Primary Care Trust (PCT), for the years 2006- 07 to 2010-11 This information is provided in the following table. Information is not collected for Ashfield. (1) Finished admission episodes. A finished admission episode (FAE) is the first period of in- patient care under one consultant within one health care provider. FAEs are counted against the year in which the admission episode finishes. Admissions do not represent the number of in-patients, as a person may have more than one admission within the year. (2) Primary diagnosis. The primary diagnosis is the first of up to 20 (14 from 2002-03 to 2006- 07 and seven prior to 2002-03) diagnosis fields in the Hospital Episode Statistics (HES) data set and provides the main reason why the patient was admitted to hospital. The ICD10 code for obesity is E66. (3) SHA/PCT of residence. The strategic health authority (SHA) or primary care trust (PCT) containing the patient's normal home address. This does not necessarily reflect where the patient was treated as they may have travelled to another SHA/PCT for treatment. (4) Assessing growth through time (In-patients). HES figures are available from 1989-90 onwards. Changes to the figures over time need to be interpreted in the context of improvements in data quality and coverage (particularly in earlier years), improvements in coverage of independent sector activity (particularly from 2006-07) and changes in national health service practice. For example, changes in activity may be due to changes in the provision of care.

    Emma Newfield From: Helen Bonham Sent: 14 February 2016 23:03 To: Consult Planning Subject: Consultation on BORLP4 'Narrative' Document Dear Sirs We would like to comment on Redditch Borough Council’s revised document as follows: 1. It is ingenuous to gloss over the Sustainability Analysis of the ADR sites on the basis that this land has been previously “removed from the Green Belt for the express purpose of meeting the future development needs of the town” (Section 9.16). It is clear that in the years since this designation was applied, there have been fundamental changes in levels of car ownership and usage, travel patterns and public transport provision which have significant implications for the sustainability of local development. This implies that the Sustainability Analysis process should have reviewed potential development in these areas in detail and with no pre-conceptions. Indeed, the designation Area of Development Restraint implies that future development should be subject to rigorous review. It is clear that in reality the review in respect of these areas has been cursory and riven with preconception. 2.Recent announcements in respect of Redditch becoming a member of the West Midlands Combined Authority suggest that future development will, and should be, focussed towards the north of the town as Birmingham City Council will be the driving force and it will be more sustainable to build closer to the areas where new jobs will be created. In this context, the Bordesley site is closest to Birmingham and the Redditch Eastern Gateway, whereas Webheath and Foxlydiate are the furthest away.

  • Invest, Don't Cut the Predicted Impact of Government Policy on Funding For
    Invest, Don’t Cut The predicted impact of Government policy on funding for schools and academies by 2020 A report by NUT and ATL This report presents findings from an NUT / ATL interactive website which demonstrates the likely impact on schools and academies of the Government’s current school funding policies and its plan to redistribute existing funding between schools in England - www.schoolcuts.org.uk The interactive website allows users to access detailed predictions for every school’s funding per pupil in real terms, as affected by the Government’s proposal to implement a new funding formula for schools alongside a freeze in funding per pupil and cost increases imposed by Government. The predictions are based on publicly available government data and the most robustly constructed proposed funding formula for schools currently available. With schools already struggling to cope, the Government plans what the Institute for Fiscal Studies has described as the largest real terms cut in school funding in a generation. We know that children are already suffering – class sizes are rising, curriculum choices are being cut, pupils with special educational needs and disabilities are losing vital support and school staff are losing their jobs. Instead of investing more money in education to address the funding shortages already hitting schools and academies, the Government plans only to move existing money around the country through a new funding formula. For every school which gains from this, others will lose – and almost every school will lose when the impact of inflation and other cost increases, against which the funding freeze offers no protection, are also taken into account.
