    Description

    Local authority level data on care leavers, aged 22 to 25, by activity (as measured at their latest contact). Users should be cautious when drawing conclusions from this data. Activity information is only for those young people who contacted the LA and requested and received support and so for older care leavers the cohort may be small. For some local authorities, the figures may be impacted by significant numbers of unaccompanied asylum seeking children.

    Description

    Reference id: SFR27/2010

    Publication type: statistical first release

    Publication data: underlying Statistical data

    Local authority data: LA data

    Region: England

    Release date: 30 September 2010

    Coverage status: final

    Publication status: published

    The figures are based on data from the SSDA903 return collected from all local authorities.

    This release reports progress on 7 local authority indicators (national indicators under the previous government’s targets).

    Main findings:

    • there were 64,400 looked after children as at 31 March 2010, an increase of 6% from 2009 and an increase of 7% since 2006
    • 27,800 children started to be looked after during the year ending 31 March 2010. This is an increase of 8% from the year ending 31 March 2009 and 13 percent from the year ending 31 March 2006. Of these children 9,500 are classed as being taken into care (see technical note 12)
    • 25,100 children ceased to be looked after during the year ending 31 March 2010. This is similar to last year’s figure of 25,000
    • overall, the main reason why social care services first engaged with children who started to be looked after during the year was because of abuse or neglect (52%). This percentage has increased since 2009
    • 73% of children who were looked after at 31 March 2010 were in a foster placement. This is an increase from 69% in 2006. There were 2,300 children placed for adoption at 31 March 2010
    • there were 3,400 unaccompanied asylum-seeking children (UASC) who were looked after at 31 March 2010. This is a decrease of 12% from 2009
    • there were 350 mothers aged 12 and over who were looked after at 31 March 2010. This is the same as the previous year and an increase of 18% from the 2006 figure

    Note that these are replacement PDF and Excel files to correct the percentage of children who ceased to be looked after due to adoption during the year ending 31 March 2006.

    The additional tables for this SFR have been arranged into 8 themes:

    • children looked after at 31 March
    • children looked after during the year ending 31 March
    • children who started to be looked after during the year ending 31 March
    • looked-after children adopted during the year ending 31 March
    • children looked after who were adopted during the year ending 31 March
    • children who ceased to be looked after aged 16 and over during the years ending 31 March (care leavers)
    • children now aged 19 years who were looked after on 1 April then aged 16 (former care leavers)
    • long term trends for children looked after at 31 March, and children who started, ceased and were adopted during the years ending 31 March

    As part of a government drive for data transparency in official publications we have included supporting data for this publication as additional tables. Underlying data for this publication was made available on 28 October 2010.

    Looked-after children data user group

    This is a new group which aims to seek feedback on whether these statistics are meeting users’ requirements and to consult on any future changes to this data collection and the timing and format of our outputs. If you would like to participate in this group then please register your interest via email.

    UK comparability of children looked after statistics

    Statistics on social services for children are collected and published by the following government departments:

    • The UK government’s Department for Education (for England)
    • The Scottish government’s Education Analytical Services Division
    • The Welsh Assembly government’s statistical directorate
    • The Northern Ireland executive’s Department of Health, Social Services and Public Safety

    In each area of social services, there are similarities between the collections in the different countries, but also differences. These may be due to different legislation, the differing history of data collections and differences in the requirements for monitoring policy. To fulfil the UKSA requirement to document these differences, a report has been produced comparing the legislative provisions in each country, describing the range of statistics produced and providing a set of statistics for English regions, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.

Description

Local authority level data on care leavers, aged 22 to 25, by activity (as measured at their latest contact). Users should be cautious when drawing conclusions from this data. Activity information is only for those young people who contacted the LA and requested and received support and so for older care leavers the cohort may be small. For some local authorities, the figures may be impacted by significant numbers of unaccompanied asylum seeking children.
