Written questions by Logan.

What plans she has for extending Turing funding to youth work, adult learning, community development and sport in line with the Erasmus+ scheme.

There are no plans to change the scope of the Turing Scheme, including the sectors in which it operates. The Turing Scheme is global by design and has supported placements in over 160 countries. The Turing Scheme already provides inclusion support through extra funding for students with special educational needs and disabilities, additional support needs (in Scotland) and additional learning needs (in Wales). The government keeps the scope of the Turing Scheme under review, and decisions on the Turing Scheme for future years will be shared in due course.Our association to Erasmus+ will open up opportunities for learners, educators, young people and communities. It is an investment in opportunity for our young people, our workforce and our future, opening doors for tens of thousands across the UK.

Whether she has considered adding funding rules, inclusion support and non-formal learning approaches to the Turing scheme.

If she will assess the potential merits of using the Turing scheme to enhance reciprocal cooperation with other European countries so it is aligned with the Erasmus+ scheme.

Whether her Department is taking steps to ensure that measures outlined in the Child Poverty Strategy designed to support families with newborn babies, including voucher schemes, are accessible to families seeking asylum.

The government is committed to ensuring that vulnerable migrant children receive the support to which they are entitled. Asylum seekers and their dependents who would otherwise be destitute can obtain support under Section 95 of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999. In addition, asylum seeking families can access some of the support set out in the Child Poverty Strategy. This will include Best Start Family Hubs in England, which will be open to all families with children aged 0–19 (or up to 25 for young people with special educational needs and disabilities). The hubs will connect families to a wide range of support, including housing, employment, debt and welfare advice. Asylum-seeking families are eligible for the 15 hour early education entitlement for 3- and 4-year-olds, and may be eligible for the 15 hour entitlement for 2-year-olds receiving additional forms of support.
