When you share an iCloud storage plan, all family members have access to all unused storage on the plan. You cannot allocate or limit the storage available to them.
To share, you need to use the instructions in the "Share iCloud+ with everyone in your family" section of Share iCloud+ with your family - Apple Support and if they currently have their own paid plan, they need to use the instructions in the "Switch from your iCloud+ plan to your family plan" section.

Thank you for that. My daughter has swapped to our family plan but is unable to upload her photos to iCloud as it says ‘iCloud family storage is full’ even though we have 1.7TB left. Any ideas?
Sorry, no. You may want to contact Apple Support. There is a Get Support link at the top right of this page.
Thank you! I’ll try that.
