The Pupil Premium Plus (PP+) post-16 programme is part of the governments work to support looked-after children and care leavers in education.
We initially ran a pilot in 30 local authority sites between October 2021 and March 2022. A further 5 million will be rolled out between September 2022 and July 2023, including an additional 28 local authorities.
The programme aims to test the extension of financial support to looked-after children and care leavers in general further education (FE) colleges across various local authorities.
The grant determination letter to participating local authorities provides:
- details of a grant to support select local authorities to pilot PP+ post-16 funding
- details of the amount of funding awarded to each local authority site in 2022 to 2023
- a link to statutory guidance that participating sites should follow
