Assisted Places Scheme

The Assisted Places Scheme was established in the UK by the Conservative government in 1980. Children who were eligible were provided with free or subsidised places to fee-charging independent schools - based on the child's results in the school's entrance examination.

Legacy
Some independent schools, many of which have charitable status, do allocate significant funding to assist in the placement of pupils from poorer backgrounds through provision of bursaries. A number of studies have looked at the legacy of the Assisted Places Scheme. These include a Sutton Trust report. ==References==
