The government recognises the importance of securing permanence for looked after children and young people. Planning for permanence is central to children and families social work.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
The Care Planning, Placement and Case Review Regulations 2010 and the supporting statutory guidance set out clear expectations on planning for permanence to ensure that children have a secure, stable and loving family to support them through childhood and beyond and to give them a sense of security, continuity, commitment, identity and belonging. This includes those children identified as having special educational needs.<\/p>

As set out in the Children Act 1989, local authorities are responsible for delivering children\u2019s social care services. Ofsted is responsible for the Inspection of Local Authority Children\u2019s Services (ILACS) and these inspections provide a robust assessment of the quality and outcomes of local services. The department publishes a range of statistics on activity rates, timeliness and costs of children\u2019s services and these data are available to all local authorities to help benchmark their services.

The department currently has no plans to reinstate the Commissioning Support Programme.<\/p>
We are providing funding through our £200 million Children\u2019s Social Care Innovation Programme to test new commissioning arrangements so that children and young people are matched to the right care placements to meet their needs.<\/p>
We are developing central commissioning arrangements for secure children\u2019s homes placements and will be providing seed funding for fostering partnerships to introduce new or expanded collaborative approaches for commissioning, sufficiency planning and integrated models of care.<\/p>
We have set up a Residential Care Leadership Board to drive forward improvements in commissioning and share learning and best practice across the sector. Local authorities are under a statutory obligation to provide accommodation for unaccompanied children who arrive in their area. This means that they become looked after children and should be safeguarded and have their welfare promoted in the same way as any other looked after child. To help support this, the government has revised the \u2018Statutory guidance on the care of unaccompanied migrant children and child victims of modern slavery\u2019, which was published 1 November 2017: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/care-of-unaccompanied-and-trafficked-children<\/a>.<\/p> The government recognises that unaccompanied asylum seeking and refugee children can be some of the most vulnerable in our society. The government\u2019s vision and additional commitment to caring for these children is set out in the strategy for \u2018Safeguarding unaccompanied asylum seeking and refugee children\u2019, published 1 November 2017: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/safeguarding-unaccompanied-asylum-seeking-and-refugee-children<\/a>.<\/p> <\/p>"}
