Asked by:
Stuart Andrew (Conservative - Daventry)
Question
to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, when she plans to respond to the Fifth Report of the Education Committee, Session 2014-15, HC 145 on Life Lessons: PSHE and SRE in schools.
Answered by Edward Timpson
The Government wants all young people to leave school prepared for life in modern Britain. We agree with the Committee that high-quality physical, social, health and economic education (PSHE) and sex and relationships education (SRE) has a vital role to play in this. We are carefully considering the Committee’s recommendations and how best to address this.

Question
to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what recent steps she has taken to promote cardiopulmonary resuscitation in schools.
Answered by Edward Timpson
Many schools already choose to include cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and defibrillator awareness as part of their personal, social, health and economic education (PSHE) teaching, using the services of organisations such as the Red Cross and St John Ambulance.
The British Heart Foundation has offered to provide free CPR training kits to every secondary school in the country, allowing young people to gain first-hand experience of this important life-saving skill. We have used our social media channels to raise awareness of this resource and have agreed to work with the British Heart Foundation to continue to promote this kit to schools. We expect many schools to take up this offer.
