Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, whether she plans to commit to 80 hours of enrichment per student per year.

We have set out our expectations and intent for school and college enrichment through the enrichment framework, published on the 15 June. The enrichment framework is intended to support equal access and support all pupils and students to engage with a school or college's offer and setting out benchmarks for high-quality enrichment offers.

Schools and colleges need the flexibility to plan and deliver enrichment activities in a manner that best suits their unique circumstances and community needs. The Framework therefore does not outline a set number of hours, but does set out expectations on a wide ranging offer available to all students.
