Since June 2011 the Home Office has funded over 180 Prevent projects in priority areas. We do not comment on individual projects, but this includes projects with youth outreach groups, parents, families, and community groups, to protect children from extremism and radicalisation. Around a third of these projects have focused on schools and supplementary schools, and there are currently seven local authorities who have created specific posts dedicated to working with schools.
