Adoption and Special Guardianship Orders: Finance
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, if she will make an assessment of the potential merits of developing a long term funding model for (a) adopted and (b) special guardianship children previously in care.
Answered by Janet Daby
All funding after March 2026 is subject to the next spending review. However, we recognise and value the positive impact of the adoption and special guardianship support fund in supporting adoptive and kinship families and its importance to many. Therefore, we will be discussing the best approach to the management of funds in future years with key stakeholders. We will announce next steps as soon as possible.
