This guide is for organisations with young parents supported by the Care to Learn (C2L) scheme in the 2024 to 2025 academic year. C2L provides funding for childcare to help young parents (defined as those aged under 20) continue in education after the birth of a child.

The guide sets out the funding rules and application processes for C2L. Organisations must comply with the rules and must be able to show they comply with this guide at any audit.
