Welcome to AfC Virtual School
AfC Virtual School supports the education of all children and young people looked after who come into care in the boroughs of Kingston, Richmond and Windsor & Maidenhead and all those who have been previously looked after. Every Virtual School headteacher must ensure that the educational achievement of both children looked after and previously looked-after children is seen as a priority by all those who have a responsibility for promoting their welfare.
This website offers information, guidance and signposting for adoptive parents, guardians and carers and for school staff who work with previously looked-after children. If you wish to return to the AfC Virtual School site for children looked after please use the Children looked-after button below.
NEW: Pupil premium plus is now available to all children adopted from overseas in April if registered on this year's census. Current annual amount is £2,530
