I have not had any discussions with independent schools or charities regarding securing support for bursaries for care-supported children and young people. However, my officials have engaged with the Royal National Children’s SpringBoard Foundation (RNCSF) charity to understand how they match suitable educational opportunities available in the UK’s boarding and independent schools’ sector to vulnerable young people in care.
The RNCSF was invited to attend our National Delivery Group for Care Experienced Children and Young People where they provided an overview of opportunities for children looked after to receive a fully funded bursary to attend an independent school, based on their individual needs and circumstances. Local authorities who attended the NDG were encouraged to contact the charity if they identified any children that might benefit from the opportunity offered.
