Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, pursuant to her contribution of 22 July 2014, Official Report, column 1262, what progress her Department has made on implementing the commitments made in the 2011 Prevent Strategy review; and what plans she has to publish the information on her Department's work in this area.
The Government publishes an annual report which describes recent developments in the terrorist threat to the UK and its interests, and the progress made in our counter-terrorism work. This includes high-level information about the contribution of different Government departments to the implementation of the Prevent strategy.
The Secretary of State's statement to the House on 22 July, in response to Peter Clarke's report into allegations about schools in Birmingham, set out the latest steps that the Government is taking to increase the resilience of schools to extremism.
The Secretary of State is still considering the best format to update the House on delivery of the Department’s commitments, and will report in due course.
