tion and training (section 23C(4)(b)); • provide vacation accommodation (or the funds to secure it) to care leavers in Higher Education, or in residential Further Education (section 24B(5)); and • provide a bursary (£2,000) to care leavers going on to Higher Education (section 23C(5A)). 4.6. The duties outlined above should follow from the needs identified in the responsible authority’s assessment that informs each young person’s pathway 34 plan. This assessment will have to demonstrate how, in responding to these duties, it will best meet their educational and/or welfare needs. Pathway plan for former relevant children 4.7. Former relevant children will continue to have a pathway plan. The plan will cover the same topics and fulfil the same functions as the pathway plan for relevant children. 4.8. However, the local authority will no longer be primarily responsible for the young person’s financial support and maintenance (see Chapter 8). The plan will need to be clear about the mainstream and universal services, including accommodation that will be provided to the young person; and how these contribute to achieving positive outcomes. The plan should reflect high aspirations for the young person and allow them the chance to have more than one opportunity to succeed. 4.9. As they mature and develop, support for former relevant young people should enable and empower them to take increasing control over the pathway planning process. Empowering young people may require a PA to allow care leavers the opportunity to take risks and learn and grow, even if this means that they may not initially be successful in what they set out to achieve. This will require considerable professional skill, judgement, engagement and attention to the young person’s developing and changing needs.
