	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/04/2019 answer text <p>The Government is clear that the English Baccalaureate (EBacc) should be studied as part of a broad and balanced curriculum.

The policy has been welcomed by care leavers and the sector.</p><p>The latest data for the year ending March 2017 shows that 51% of those ceasing to be looked after in a foster placement on their 18<sup>th</sup> birthday remained with their former foster carer. In addition, 25% of 19 and 20 year olds were still living with their former foster carers.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 13/09/2018 15:03:12 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi
