<p>Between November 2016 and February 2019, ECPAT(UK) and the Refugee Council have
trained 2,086 foster carers and support workers on caring for the specialist safeguarding
needs of unaccompanied asylum-seeking children. The training is equipping these carers
with the skills they need to identify when a child is at risk of going missing to
be onwards trafficked, of being exploited for economic, sexual, and criminal exploitation
or of being exposed to radicalisation.</p><p> </p><p>The information requested on
the number of foster carers or support workers is not held centrally so we are unable
to provide this as a proportion of the total foster carers and support workers.</p><p>
</p><p>Since 2016, recipients of the training have generally reported high levels
of satisfaction with its quality. For the current tranche of training, 99% of those
trained who provided feedback rated the training ‘good’ or ‘excellent’.</p><p> </p><p>
