New Data and updated factsheets for care leavers and those who support them

DfE published the latest data on CiC and care leavers (for year ending March 2023), last week.  The headline data and instructions on how to create your own bespoke data tables can be found here: Children looked after in England including adoptions, Reporting year 2023 – Explore education statistics – GOV.UK (explore-education-statistics.service.gov.uk)

You can also access a number of factsheets that have been updated to take account of changes to Universal Credit and National Minimum wage rates:

• A summary of the support that care leavers are entitled to from local and central government: Support for Care Leavers Factsheet (adobe.com)
• Information on the support available in Universal Credit for care leavers moving into work: J000461 CLC Appenticeship Job Factsheet (adobe.com)
