Thank you, David. I continue to look at new and innovative ways in which we can build relationships between schools and parents, given the crucial role that they can play in raising attainment. The FaCE toolkit, as I said, is being widely welcomed by practitioners in schools. Consortia are working with schools to ensure that it is taken up.

You raise a very important point about the issue of foster carers. I know from some of my own constituency casework how, sometimes, foster carers can find it difficult to obtain places for children who are placed with them if they have come from out of county. So, thank you for raising this important matter and I will investigate with officials further what more we can do in this important area for that important group of children and their carers.
