Peterborough Virtual School is a team of teachers and dedicated education professionals who work to support the education and improve educational outcomes for all Peterborough children who have or have had a social worker.
Our statutory remit includes the promotion of educational outcomes for children and young people in care between the ages of 2 and 18, this includes the quality assurance Personal Education Plans (PEPs) which form a key part of the overall care planning. Additionally, the Virtual School provides information and advice for children previously in care including those who have been adopted from care and those under special guardianship and child arrangement orders.
The Virtual School has a non-statutory strategic leadership role for children who have or have had a social worker (in the last 6 years) aged 0-18 for safeguarding or welfare reasons. Additionally, we offer information and advice for children living in kinship care arrangements.
This website aims to be a place to access information, advice and guidance, share best practice and gain a complete picture of the multi-agency work which goes on in support of our most vulnerable children and young people.
