Extracurricular Activities: Government Assistance
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, when she plans to begin delivery of the Enrichment Expansion Programme; and how her Department plans to work with selected schools to roll out the programme.
Answered by Stephanie Peacock
As part of the Government’s ambition to halve the participation gap, DCMS, in partnership with DfE, will invest £22.5 million through the Enrichment Expansion Programme (EEP). This funding will support up to 400 schools in areas of greatest need across England to provide youth-voice led, tailored and high-quality enrichment offers.
The programme is currently being designed, and further details on delivery timelines and school selection will be shared in due course.
