Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many children-on-children assaults have occurred at the Oasis Restore secure school at Medway since it opened.
Answered by Jake Richards - Assistant Whip
The latest published statistics for assaults relate to the period up to 31 March 2025. During that period, there were 31 assaults on staff and 10 child-on-child assaults. The total number reported to the police was five or fewer: it is not possible to provide an exact figure, as that would risk identifying individuals.
In the period up to 28 August 2025, 32 weapons were found.

Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what the total cost has been of repairs to the infrastructure at the Oasis Restore secure school due to vandalism since it opened.
Answered by Jake Richards - Assistant Whip
To obtain the requested information, it would be necessary to undertake a detailed examination of all records relating to expenditure on repairs, in order to identify the element attributable to vandalism, and this could not be done without incurring disproportionate cost.

Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what progress he has made on improving data on joint enterprise cases.
Answered by Alex Davies-Jones - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Ministry of Justice)
Joint enterprise is not a specific criminal offence. It is a common law doctrine which can apply in situations where two or more individuals have a common purpose to commit any criminal offence.
The Ministry of Justice currently collects information on how many defendants are prosecuted and convicted of specific criminal offences but not whether those crimes are committed as part of a joint enterprise. We are, however, considering the feasibility of collecting data on joint enterprise cases as part of the development of the Common Platform, a criminal justice IT programme.
Following a Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) pilot to monitor joint enterprise homicide and attempted homicide cases in February 2023, the CPS implemented a national monitoring scheme in 2024, using a mandatory case management system flag to track such prosecutions and ensure greater oversight. On 23 September, the CPS published its annual report on data collected during the period 1 April 2024 to 31 March 2025, which can be found at: CPS Joint Enterprise National Monitoring Scheme 2024-25 | The Crown Prosecution Service.
