Published
Last updated
Local authority level data for children looked after on 31 March for at least 12 months, by OC2 indicators. These are whether the child was convicted or subject to youth cautions, or youth conditional cautions during the year, was identified as having a substance misuse problem, and if so, if they were offered an intervention and if they refused it, had their annual health assessment, had their immunisations up to date, had their teeth checked by a dentist, had their development assessments are up to date, if they were under 5 years old. And also information on Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) scores. For some local authorities, the figures may be impacted by significant numbers of unaccompanied asylum seeking children.

However, users looking for a longer time series may wish to check for the equivalent table in earlier releases of this publication. Figures exclude children looked after under a series of short-term placements.

- Users should be cautious when using the EES platform to create a table from this dataset for average SDQ scores. These averages are provided to 1 decimal place in the csv file, however due to the structure of the file the EES platform will round the averages in a table. You are strongly advised to cross check any SDQ averages in tables created using the EES platform to the underlying data file.
- Hampshire local authority reported some missing immunisation data and data quality issues with other health outcomes information due to a new records management system in 2024.
