Starting allowance range – £420 to £630 per child per week
Additional grants and allowances e.g. festival allowance and child summer holiday grant
Higher allowances are for children with additional needs such as parent and child placements, children with medical needs, or young offenders. Allowances will also increase with your level of experience.
