Mr. Clappison: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment what proposals he has for the vetting of learning mentors.
[119274]
Mr. Wicks: For Learning Mentors in the Excellence in Cities programme, as with any school employee, authorities and schools should
conduct all necessary background and other checks to verify the suitability of those applying to work with children and young
people.
ConneXions Partnerships will be required to ensure that personal advisers employed within the ConneXions Service have met
recruitment specifications. These include: ensuring that personal checks including criminal background checks have been completed
prior to employment; that they have attended or agreed to attend appropriate training at a recognised centre offering approved
personal adviser foundation training; and that they work effectively in the role of personal adviser to the standards agreed for the
role including, for example, the practical application of equal opportunities and diversity.

implementation of his proposals for learning mentors. [119263]
Mr. Wicks: For the implementation of the current programme of Learning Mentors within Excellence in Cities areas, three officials
within DfEE are employed full time. A number of others are involved in the wider development of Excellence in Cities.
My Department also contains a team dealing with professional formation issues within the ConneXions Service. These issues include
the role and training of Personal Advisers, who, in a school context, will be similar to Learning Mentors. The team contains six
members.
