The department keeps the Staying Put policy under constant review by monitoring data from local authorities showing take-up amongst young people, engagement with the sector and looking at information from Ofsted inspections of local authorities. Staying Put was also considered as part of the independent fostering review undertaken by Sir Martin Narey and Mark Owers, published in February 2018.<\/p>
Staying Put has been welcomed by care leavers and the sector. It is recognised by them as a positive initiative and has helped thousands of care leavers to transition more smoothly from care to independence, providing continuity of relationships and care arrangements. The department will continue to gather information from the national rollout of Staying Put and in light of this, refine policy as required.<\/p>"}

There have been 64,830 apprenticeship starts in Health, Public Services and Care, reported to date, in the first three quarters of the 2017 to 2018 academic year (August 2017 to April 2018) in England:<\/p>
https://www.gov.uk/government/statistical-data-sets/fe-data-library-apprenticeships<\/a>.<\/p>We want to increase the number of nursing apprenticeships and now have a complete apprentice pathway from entry level to postgraduate advanced clinical practice in nursing. This will support people from all backgrounds to enter a nursing career in the NHS.<\/p>
The registered nurse (degree) apprenticeship standard was approved for delivery on 9 May 2017. To date, there have been 260 starts on the registered nurse (degree) apprenticeship in the 2017 to 2018 academic year (August 2017 to April 2018) in England.<\/p>
We have also created a new programme for nursing associate (Level 5 standard approved for delivery on 20 November 2017) apprentices to broaden the routes into the profession. 5,000 starts are planned in 2018, with a further 7,500 in 2019. To date, there have been 640 starts on the nursing associate apprenticeship in the 2017 to 2018 academic year (August 2017 to April 2018) in England.<\/p>
We are working closely with employers, Health Education England and ministers in the Department of Health and Social Care to make sure the NHS is fully supported to recruit apprentices, both in nursing and in a range of other occupations.<\/p>"}
