Every child in care must have a Personal Education Plan (PEP) as part of their care plan, so that they can achieve their full potential in terms of education.

The Personal Education Plan or PEP is a record of how professionals around a child in care will support their educational outcomes and achievement.  It is developed and reviewed with the designated teacher, young person, social worker, carer and Virtual School. 

A PEP should always include:

• strengths and achievements
• views of the student
• SMART academic targets
• current and target attainment data
