Mr. Bernard Gloster:

We are developing the outcomes framework that I referred to earlier to get an accurate longitudinal picture of that. That will take some time. Individual pockets of work have been done. Where we capture many of our care leavers and how they do after turning 18 is in the period up to 21 or 23 years with those who remain involved with the after-care system and are being supported by it. That is about 3,000 people. We see significant numbers going on to third level education. For some, that is neither a suitable nor desirable option. We have now started to provide alternative pathways for things like apprenticeships. We have developed partnerships with the construction industry and other providers to create lots of different pathways for people. With the development of after-care workers, we are now staying in touch with people longer so we are able to see how a lot of people are doing, certainly into their early 20s.
