Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, if she will publish the modelling that informed the funding split for the Enrichment Expansion Programme.
The Enrichment Expansion Programme (EEP) will invest £22.5 million across 3 years to support up to 400 schools to provide a youth-voice led, tailored enrichment offer.
Through the EEP, DCMS is providing £16.8m grant funding to a delivery partner to enhance the coordination of enrichment provision and to support secondary schools to improve their offer.
£2.8 million will be allocated separately to school grants to cover staff costs associated with improving their enrichment offer.
The funding requirement has been benchmarked against related enrichment programmes.
