Monthly allowance for 16 year old

[mrs_overall]

My daughter will be 16 shortly & is staying on at school in the 6th form. I give her £10 a week pocket money. I buy all her clothes, toiletries etc
She has asked if she can have a monthly allowance when she reaches 16. Out of this allowance she will then be responsible for budgeting for all her clothes, toiletries, socialising, school lunches etc.
I think it's a good idea but can anyone suggest what the amount should be?

hi mrs o sorry ofr any offence :)
i was thinking last night after i posted my last post that even if you are not going to use the a levels, sometimes there is pleasure in study for study's sake. I certainly didn't mean to imply she was stupid or couldn't manage a levels.
I think i just didn't read the whole post properly and saw you pst that she couldn't work, and i thought you meant ever.
