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 and guardians 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.

Children Looked-After

New: Pupil Premium Plus for previously looked-after children will now be calculated from the autumn school census rather than the January census. Funding of £2,345 per child will be paid in April 2021 directly to schools by the DfE for all eligible children registered by schools.
