or services arise mainly from having no parent(s) available to provide for them. A8.2 Guide to inclusion or exclusion from this category This category must not be used loosely for children looked after for whatever reason. This category is reserved for the needs of children who simply do not have a source of parenting. This category should be chosen for children whose birth parent(s) make a well- intentioned and rational decision that they cannot care for the child and that it is in the child’s best interests to be adopted. 63 The category also includes: • children whose needs arise because their parent(s) have died or are lost; • children whose parent(s) have sent them away for good motives; • children who have become separated from their parent(s) due to civil or natural disaster, or due to political events; • children who are unaccompanied asylum seeking children (UASC). The category could also include children who are in need simply because a parent has been imprisoned but the reason for imprisonment bears no relation to the child being in need. A8.3 Possible sub-categories to help define main category • parent(s) die/s; • unaccompanied asylum seeking children; • separated from parent(s) by natural or civil disaster, or political events; • private fostering. A9. Cases other than children in need (code ‘N9’) A9.1 Definition Children who are receiving services but who are not strictly children in need. This category must never be used because children do not appear to fit into other categories. This code can be used if a child has been adopted and although no longer a child in need, receives adoption support from social services immediately after the adoption. This is not to be used where a child only receives an adoption payment. A10. Need code to stated (code ‘N0’)
