CLAP004A | clap_cla_placement_type | This category can be defined, in a broad sense, as indicating where the child is living. Code set A3 - Placed for adoption with parental/guardian consent with current foster carer(s) (S19 Adoption and Children Act 2002) or with a freeing order where parental/guardian consent has been given (S18(1)(a) Adoption Act 1976) A4 - Placed for adoption with parental/guardian consent not with current foster carer(s) (S19 Adoption and Children Act 2002) or with a freeing order where parental/guardian consent has been given (S18(1)(a) Adoption Act 1976) A5 - Placed for adoption with placement order with current foster carer(s) (S21 Adoption and Children Act 2002) or with a freeing order where parental/guardian consent was dispensed with (S18(1)(b) Adoption Act 1976) A6 - Placed for adoption with placement order not with current foster carer(s) (S21 Adoption and Children Act 2002) or with a freeing order where parental/guardian consent was dispensed with (S18(1)(b) of the Adoption Act 1976) H5 - Semi-independent living accommodation not subject to children’s homes regulations K1 - Secure children’s homes K2 - Children’s Homes subject to Children’s Homes Regulations P1 - Placed with own parent(s) or other person(s) with parental responsibility P2 - Independent living e.g. in a flat/ lodgings, bedsit, B&B or with friends, with or without formal support P3 - Residential employment R1 - Residential care home R2 - National Health Service (NHS)/health trust or other establishment providing medical or nursing care R3 - Family centre or mother and baby unit R5 - Young offender institution (YOI) S1 - All residential schools, except where dual-registered as a school and children’s home T0 - All types of temporary move (see paragraphs above for further details) T1 - Temporary periods in hospital T2 - Temporary absences of the child on holiday T3 - Temporary accommodation whilst normal foster carer(s) is/are on holiday T4 - Temporary accommodation of seven days or less, for any reason, not covered by codes T1 to T3 U1 - Foster placement with relative(s) or friend(s) – long term fostering U2 - Fostering placement with relative(s) or friend(s) who is/are also an approved adopter(s) – FFA/ concurrent planning U3 - Fostering placement with relative(s) or friend(s) who is/are not long-term or FFA/ concurrent planning U4 - Foster placement with other foster carer(s) – long term fostering U5 - Foster placement with other foster carer(s) who is/are also an approved adopter(s) – FFA/ concurrent planning U6 - Foster placement with other foster carer(s) – not long term or FFA/ concurrent planning Z1 - Other placements (must be listed on a schedule sent to DfE with annual submission) | SSDA903, AnnexA | |
CLAP005A | clap_cla_placement_urn | A new requirement was introduced in the collection year 2015 to 2016, to return the unique reference number (URN) where the setting is subject to Ofsted inspections. For children’s homes this would be the URN of the individual home and for foster or adoptive placements this would be the URN of the relevant service or agency providing the placement. For larger providers with multiple settings or branches the precise URN for the particular setting or branch is required. In some cases, it will be valid to provide different information to that registered with Ofsted, for example if a child is placed at the provider but at a different postcode to the main site. This could be the case if a child is residing in a dormitory with a different postcode to the registered site. Here the actual postcode where the child resides should be reported. The URN is in the format SC999999 or 9999999 for newly registered providers. Note that secure training centres may have both a 6-digit education URN and a 7-digit social care URN and it is the 7-digit social care URN which should be returned in the SSDA903. Where local authorities are certain that a provider is not inspected by Ofsted but is inspected by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) or Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) then the code ‘XXXXXXX’ should be used. Similarly, the code ‘XXXXXXX’ should be used when the provider is a regional adoption agency. Where placements are of a type or in a setting not inspected by Ofsted, such as placed with parents, then no URN is expected. | SSDA903, AnnexA | |
CLAP011A | clap_cla_placement_distance | Distance of Placement from Child's home address (miles). When a child’s home postcode is outside of England or not available, or the placement postcode is not available, please use 999.9 for the distance. This includes children from overseas, children whose parents were homeless or children who had no fixed address as they belonged to a traveller family. | SSDA903 | |
CLAP012A | clap_cla_id | System identifier for the whole period of care, encompassing all episodes included within that period of care. | Local | |
CLAP007A | clap_cla_placement_provider | For each placement, except those children looked-after placed in temporary placements (T0-T4) or other placements (Z1) a placement provider code is required. This will record information on the party providing the placement. Children placed with their own parents do not strictly have a placement provider and should be allocated code PR0, only. Code set PR0 - Parent(s) or other person(s) with parental responsibility PR1 - Own provision (by the local authority) including a regional adoption agency where the child’s responsible local authority is the host authority PR2 - Other local authority provision, including a regional adoption agency where another local authority is the host authority PR3 - Other public provision (for example, a primary care trust) PR4 - Private provision PR5 - Voluntary/third sector provision | SSDA903, AnnexA | |
CLAP008A | clap_cla_placement_postcode | The postcode of the location where the child is placed. | SSDA903, AnnexA | |
CLAP009A | clap_cla_placement_end_date | This item records the date that each placement ended. A placement cannot start and end on the same day. Where a child has not left care, a new placement must start on the same day as the previous placement finished. | SSDA903, AnnexA | |
CLAP010A | clap_cla_placement_change_reason | Reason for placement change. The reason for placement change should be recorded against the episode that is ceasing, not against the new episode starting. Code set CARPL - Change to/Implementation of Care Plan This code would be used where the change of placement is a planned part of the child’s care plan and will be a move to a placement that meets the child’s assessed needs on a temporary or permanent basis. This would include circumstances where a placement change was not expected but becomes necessary. The key factor is that planning takes place and the decision is recorded in the child’s care plan before the change takes place. This would include moves from short to long term foster care or where a child is placed for adoption with the current foster carer. It also includes movements to semi-independence. The nature of the change in plan will be monitored through the placement codes before and after this move. This should not include changes where the foster carer has moved to a new house or where the carer is the same but has changed provider type. CLOSE - Resignation/ closure of provision This code would be used where a child has to be moved because a foster carer decides to resign or the setting closes. This code would be used in a planned move; not in an emergency. The foster carer’s decision to resign may be because their circumstances have changed, for example, the foster carer becomes ill or another change of circumstances means that the foster carer is no longer able to provide a placement for the child. Circumstances may also include where the child’s placement had lasted longer than expected and the foster carer is no longer able to provide a placement for the child. Use of this code would also include where a setting (for example, a children’s home or a fostering service) closes and is therefore no longer a registered provision with Ofsted. ALLEG - Allegation (s47) This code would be used where a child has been removed from placement because of an allegation which is being investigated under s47 (Children Act 1989). This allegation may relate to the carer or another child at the setting. This code should not be used if the allegation has resulted in the setting’s approval (for example, a children’s home or a fostering service) being terminated – in this case, ‘approval removed’ should be used. STAND - Standards of care concern This code would be used where a child has been removed from placement by the responsible authority or provider as a result of concerns about standards of care. This does not mean a child protection investigation (s47) but a formal process followed by the provider. For example, see the National Minimum Standards for Fostering Service 2011, standard. 22. This code can be used for all types of placement such as foster care, residential care. This code should not be used if the setting’s approval is terminated as a result of standards of care concerns – in this case, ‘approval removed’ should be used. CUSTOD - Custody arrangement This code would be used where a child has been admitted into custody. APPRR Approval removed This code would be used where a setting is no longer approved/registered with the appropriate statutory body (such as Ofsted). This code can be used for all types of placement such as foster care, residential care. For example, this code should be used where a foster carer’s approval is terminated by the service following a s47 investigation, a standards of care issue, a complaint or for other reasons that relate to the carers’ conduct. It should also be used where Ofsted take enforcement action resulting in the closure of a residential setting. This code should not be used when a foster carer resigns or a provision is closed voluntarily and they are no longer registered with the relevant statutory body (such as Ofsted). CREQB - Carer(s) requests placement end due to child’s behaviour This code would be used where because of the child’s behaviour the placement has broken down or disrupted, and the carer has asked for the placement to end and the child to be moved to another placement. There may be some planning involved and a short period of time may pass but this is not a planned move. CREQO - Carer(s) requests placement end other than due to child’s behaviour These codes would be used where it was intended that the placement was a short or long term arrangement but has broken down or disrupted and the carer [foster carer, residential unit or connected person] has asked for the child to be moved to another placement. There may be some planning involved and a short period of time may pass but this is not a planned move. CHILD - Child requests placement end This code would be used where it was intended that the placement was a short- or long-term arrangement but has broken down or disrupted and the child has asked to move to another placement. There may be some planning involved and a short period of time may pass but this is not a planned move. LAREQ - Responsible/area authority requests placement end This code would be used where it was intended that the placement was a short- or long-term placement but the responsible authority has decided that the placement no longer meets the child’s needs. There may be some planning involved and a short period of time may pass but this is not a planned move. There will be circumstances where the child is at risk of harm and this would be coded as an allegation or standards of care concern. Where the placement no longer meets a child’s need but there is no immediate risk – this code would be used. PLACE - Change in the status of placement only This code would be used where there is a change of status for the placement, but the child remains with the same carer and there is no change to the care plan. Examples include a foster carer moving to a new house, a foster carer working for a local authority becomes managed by an independent fostering agency, a placement for adoption transferring to a regional adoption agency, or a child in residential accommodation moving under the same provider. Here the ‘reason for new episode’ code will indicate that the child is still living with the same carer. OTHER - Other Any other reason not captured above. Please note that ’Other’ should only be used in exceptional circumstances. | SSDA903 | |

EHCA001A | ehca_ehcp_assessment_id | (currently 'PLACEHOLDER_DATA' pending further development) EHCP assessment record unique ID from system or auto-generated as part of export. This module collects information on the decision to issue a plan. Where a decision has been made to issue a plan, the detail about the placement named on the EHC plan should be recorded in Module 4. It is possible that multiple assessments may be recorded for a single person. For example, if it was decided not to issue a plan previously and a new assessment has been agreed following a new request. If a child or young person transfers into the local authority’s area during the assessment process before an EHC plan has been issued there is no right of transfer of decisions made by the originating local authority. Under good practice local authorities may decide to share information but the importing local authority must make its own decisions on whether to assess and whether to issue a plan. Where a person with an existing EHC plan transfers into the local authority’s area (item 5.1) the assessment should be recorded as historical by the importing local authority, even if the EHC plan start date is within the collection year. | 1aNotInCMS, RIIA | |

If the change follows from mediation or tribunal the appropriate mediation and tribunal indicators should be selected for the assessment. W may include where the person moves out of the local authority area, leaves education or training or if the child or young person dies. Where A or W is selected, no further information is required in this or subsequent modules. The 20-week timeliness measure will not apply in cases where a plan has not yet been issued. For an active plan, where the decision to issue was made before the latest collection period (H - Historical) information is still required on the plan itself. | 1aNotInCMS, SEN2, RIIA, SEN2 | |

CINE010A | cine_cin_primary_need_code | CIN Primary Need Code. This code indicates the main reason why a child started to receive services. The categories are designed only to identify what kind of pressures are placed on social services. They have no diagnostic value with regard to the children themselves and must not be used to determine what type of service the child should receive. If there is difficulty choosing between two or more categories of need, choose the category that comes highest up in the table, for example, if trying to decide between family in acute stress and family dysfunction, choose family in acute stress. The order of the categories relates to the specificity of the description and not necessarily importance. However, the order is fixed so that there is consistency. The children in need census for 2005 and earlier tried to account for all money spent in a census week. To allow for this, ‘N9’ was created, but as this census is specifically child based, the definition of ‘N9’ from 2005 is not applicable. As in previous years, ‘N9’ can be used if a child is no longer in need and the only service they are receiving is adoption support (on an open case) immediately after they have been in need. Code Set N1 - Abuse or neglect Children in need as a result of, or at risk of, abuse or neglect; also includes children at risk because of domestic violence. N2 - Child’s disability Children and families whose main need for services arises because of their child’s disability, illness or intrinsic condition. N3 - Parental disability or illness Children whose main need for services arises because the capacity of their parent(s) (or carer(s)) to care for them is impaired by the parent(s) (or carer(s)) disability, physical or mental illness, or addictions. N4 - Family in acute stress Children whose needs arise from living in a family that is going through a temporary crisis that diminishes the parental capacity to adequately meet some of the children’s needs. N5 - Family dysfunction Children whose needs primarily arise from living in a family where the parenting capacity is chronically inadequate. N6 - Socially unacceptable behaviour Children and families whose need for services primarily arise out of the child’s behaviour impacting detrimentally on the community. N7 - Low income Children, living in families or independently, whose needs primarily arise from being dependent on an income below the standard state entitlements. N8 - Absent parenting Children whose needs for services arise mainly from having no parents available to provide for them. N9 - Cases other than children in need Children who have been adopted and, although they are no longer a child in need, receive adoption support from children’s social services immediately after adoption. This should not be used where a child receives an adoption payment only. N0 - Not stated Children whose reference data is not completely entered on the system and whose need code is yet to be determined, or the case is a referral that has been closed following assessment. | CIN, AnnexA, RIIA | |

DISA003A | disa_table_id | Row identifier for the ssd_disability table | Local | |
DISA002A | disa_disability_code | The Disability Discrimination Act 2005 (DDA) defines a disabled person as a person with a physical or mental impairment which has a substantial and long-term adverse effect on his/her ability to carry out normal day-to-day activities. The condition must have lasted, or be likely to last at least 12 months in order to be counted as a disability. Code set NONE - ‘NO DISABILITY’ MOB - ‘MOBILITY’ – getting about the house and beyond HAND - ‘HAND FUNCTION’ – holding and touching PC - ‘PERSONAL CARE’ – For example, eating, washing, going to the toilet dressing INC - ‘INCONTINENCE’ – controlling the passage of urine or faeces COMM - ‘COMMUNICATION’ – speaking and/or understanding others LD - ‘LEARNING’ – For example, having special educational needs HEAR - ‘HEARING’ VIS - ‘VISION’ BEH - ‘BEHAVIOUR’ – a condition entailing behavioural difficulties, includes attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) CON - ‘CONCIOUSNESS’ – seizures AUT - ‘DIAGNOSED WITH AUTISM OR ASPERGER SYNDROME’ – diagnosed by a qualified medical practitioner as having classical autism or Asperger syndrome. Do not include children who have merely been identified as having an autistic spectrum disorder (ASD), for example by their school. This can be associated with the behaviour and learning categories above. DDA - ‘OTHER DDA’ – one or more of the child’s disabilities under the Disability Discrimination Act 2005 (DDA) does not fall into any of the above categories. Certain conditions are not regarded as impairments for the purposes of the act: • addiction to, or dependency on, alcohol, nicotine, or any other substance (other than as a result of the substance being medically prescribed); • the condition known as seasonal allergic rhinitis (hay fever), except where it aggravates the effect of another condition; • tendency to start fires; • tendency to steal; • tendency to physically or sexually abuse other persons; • exhibitionism; • voyeurism In addition, disfigurements such as tattoos, non-medical body piercing, or something attached through such piercing, are not regarded as having a substantial adverse effect on the person’s ability to carry out normal day-to-day activities. If a child is disabled or becomes disabled at any time during the collection year, record all the relevant disabilities that have affected the child. For example, children may have multiple disabilities in which case more than one category from the below list can be selected. ‘Other DDA’ can also be used in conjunction with any of the other categories. If your MIS does not allow for the identification of individual disabilities, then the code ‘Other DDA’ may be used for all children with a disability. If a child has no disability, do not leave this item blank; use the code ‘NONE’. However, if a child is unborn then the disability item should be left blank. | CIN, AnnexA |

PERS004A | pers_ethnicity | Person's Ethnicity. This information must come from the child, or the parent, guardian or carer. Where the ethnicity has not yet been collected, this is recorded as ‘NOBT’ (information not yet obtained). Where a child, parent, guardian or carer declines to provide ethnicity data, code ‘REFU’ (refused) is recorded. Ethnicity should be recorded using one of the DfE main categories shown below, which replicate those used in the school census and the children in need (CIN) return. Code set WBRI - White British WIRI - White Irish WOTH - Any other White background WIRT - Traveller of Irish Heritage WROM - Gypsy/Roma MWBC - White and Black Caribbean MWBA - White and Black African MWAS - White and Asian MOTH - Any other Mixed background AIND - Indian APKN - Pakistani ABAN - Bangladeshi CNHE - Chinese AOTH - Any other Asian background BCRB - Caribbean BAFR - African BOTH - Any other Black background OOTH - Any other ethnic group REFU - Refused NOBT - Information not yet obtained | SSDA903, CIN, AnnexA, RIIA, SEN2 | |
PERS005A | pers_dob | Person's date of birth. Either Date of Birth or Expected Date of Birth should be recorded, but not both. If the exact day of birth is not known: Unknown dates can be a problem for unaccompanied asylum-seeking children, If the day of birth is not known then assume that it was the 15th of the month. Do not use first day of the month as a dummy date of birth. | SSDA903, CIN, AnnexA, RIIA, SEN2 | |
PERS013A | pers_common_child_id | This is a lifetime national identifier allocated from birth, or when a person registers with the NHS for the first time (England, Isle of Man and Wales). Allocated by the PDS, the first nine digits are the identifier and the tenth helps the number test its own validity. | Local | |
PERS014A | pers_legacy_id | This secondary person identifier follows the same specification as per_person_id and can be used to carry over legacy systems person_ids where maintaining this underpins existing or legacy reporting mechanisms. | Local | |
PERS007A | pers_upn_unknown | If the UPN is unknown, then one of the codes below should be used. If a child is educated outside England, please use UPN unknown code UN3, unless the child has a UPN from previously attending a school in England. If the child is home educated and has previously attended a mainstream school, please provide the UPN allocated earlier. Code set UN1 - Child looked-after is not of school age and has not yet been assigned a UPN UN2 - Child looked-after has never attended a maintained school in England (for example, some unaccompanied asylum-seeking children (UASC)) UN3 - Child looked-after is educated outside England UN4 - Child is newly looked-after and the UPN is not yet known UN5 - Sources collating UPNs reflect discrepancy(ies) for the child's name and/or surname and/or date of birth therefore preventing reliable matching (for example, duplicated UPNs) | RIIA, CIN, SEN2 | |
PERS008A | pers_send_flag | Flag showing if a person has an EHC plan recorded on the system. Code set Y - Has an EHC Plan N - Does not have an EHC Plan | NEETandparticipation, RIIA | |
PERS009A | pers_expected_dob | The expected date of birth (due date) is recorded for a child who is unborn at the time of referral. If the child is born before the case is closed, then the actual date of birth should be recorded. If a child is stillborn, or the mother suffers a miscarriage (including a chemical pregnancy) or a phantom pregnancy, or there is a termination of the pregnancy, please record the expected date of birth and leave the date of birth blank. The children in need (CIN) closure date does not need to match the date on the death certificate. The date of death and the final closure date can both be recorded. The reason for CIN closure should be recorded as ‘RC2 died’. | CIN, RIIA | |
PERS010A | pers_death_date | Date of death, which should be verified from the death certificate. | CIN, RIIA | |
PERS011A | pers_is_mother | Calculated within the SSD extract based on if a parent-child relationship exists for persons with a sex code other than Male (i.e. Female or Unknown). A child will be classified as a mother even if they do not care for the child themselves (for example, if consent was given for the child to be adopted). Code set N - Child is not a mother Y - Child is a mother | SSDA903, RIIA | |

CLAE003A | clae_cla_episode_start_date | The date that CLA Episode began. | SSDA903, RIIA, AnnexA | |
CLAE004A | clae_cla_episode_start_reason | Code Set S - Started to be looked after L - Change of legal status only P - Change of placement and carer(s) only T - Change of placement (but same carer(s)) only B - Change of legal status and placement and carer(s) at the same time U - Change of legal status and change of placement (but same carer(s)) at the same time Use Code S where a child is starting to be looked-after for the first time, or had previously ceased to be looked-after, and is now starting to be looked-after again. Also use code S when recording agreements to provide short-term placements (legal status V4), and for individual breaks under such an agreement, if these are being recorded separately (legal status V3). Use Code L where there is a change of legal status, but the placement does not change. By ‘legal status’ we mean the legal status underlying the fact that the child is looked-after. Use Code P where there is a change of placement and carer, but the legal status does not change. This would include the following scenarios: • Move from one foster carer to another foster carer (for example, U3 to another U3 placement type code). • Move from a foster carer to a children’s home (for example, U3 to K2 placement types). In both scenarios there has been a change of carer. When a child is living independently, a new episode should be created each time they move, and code P should be used. Use Code T where there is a change of placement, but the child remains with the same carer and the legal status does not change. This would include the following scenarios: • Child moves to a new house with current foster carer (either inside or outside of local authority boundary). • Child remains with same carer or within same setting but either the URN of the setting changes or the provider type changes (for example, a foster carer moves from an IFA to the local authority provider, or a placement for adoption transferring to a regional adoption agency, or an unregulated independent or semi independent setting registering with Ofsted). In both scenarios, the child has remained with the same carer, but for some other reason, a new placement is required on the SSDA903. Use Code B where both legal status and placement change, with a change of carer, on the same day. The two changes do not need to be simultaneous or consequent one upon the other. The code simply reflects that there was a change in carer and a change in legal status, for whatever reason, on the same day. Use Code U where both legal status and placement change on the same day, but the child remains with the same carer. The two changes do not need to be simultaneous or consequent one upon the other. The code simply reflects that there was a change in placement and a change in legal status, for whatever reason, on the same day. | SSDA903, RIIA | |
CLAE009A | clae_cla_primary_need_code | Category of need (CIN) codes record the main reason why a child is being provided with services. This provides a further insight as to why a particular child is being looked-after. Use the category of need code most relevant at the time the current period of being looked-after began. The category of need code relates to the reason the child originally became looked-after and should remain the same throughout their period of care. Code set N1 - Abuse or neglect Child in need as a result of, or at risk of, abuse or neglect. N2 - Child’s disability Child and their family whose main need for children’s social care services arises out of the child’s disabilities, illness or intrinsic condition N3 - Parental illness or disability Child whose main need for children’s social care services arises because the capacity of their parent(s) or carer(s) to care for them is impaired by disability, illness, mental illness, or addictions N4 - Family in acute stress Child whose needs arise from living in a family going through a temporary crisis such that parenting capacity is diminished and some of the children’s needs are not being adequately met N5 - Family dysfunction Child whose needs arise mainly out of their living with a family where the parenting capacity is chronically inadequate N6 - Socially unacceptable behaviour Child and family whose need for children’s social care services arises primarily out of their behaviour impacting detrimentally on the community N7 - Low income Child, either living in a family or independently, whose need for children’s social care services arises mainly from being dependent on an income below the standard state entitlements N8 - Absent parenting Child whose need for children’s social care services arises mainly from having no parent(s) available to provide for them. A child whose parent(s) decide it is in the best interest for the child to be adopted would be included in this category | SSDA903, AnnexA, RIIA | |
CLAE005A | clae_cla_episode_ceased | This item records the date that each episode ended. An episode cannot start and end on the same day. Where a child has not left care, a new episode must start on the same day as the previous episode finished. When a child ceases to be looked-after because of adoption (reason episode ceased codes of E11 or E12), the date episode ceased is the date the court makes the adoption order. When a child ceases to be looked-after because he/she dies whilst being looked-after (reason episode ceased code E2), the date episode ceased must be the same as the date of death as recorded on the death certificate. | SSDA903, AnnexA, RIIA | |
CLAE006A | clae_cla_episode_ceased_reason | When an episode has ended and a further episode, in the same period of care, has started, use the code, X1. All other ‘reason episode ceased’ codes record the circumstances when a child ceases to be looked-after. If a child ceases to be looked-after because he/she has turned 18, this can already be deduced from his/her date of birth. Therefore, the appropriate code below should be used to capture the destination of the young person. X1 - Episode ceases, and new episode begins on same day, for any reason E11 - Adopted - application for an adoption order unopposed E12 - Adopted – consent dispensed with by the court E2 - Died E3 - Care taken over by another local authority in the UK E4A - Returned home to live with parent(s), relative(s), or other person(s) with parental responsibility as part of the care planning process (not under a special guardianship order or residence order/ child arrangement order). E4B - Returned home to live with parent(s), relative(s), or other person(s) with parental responsibility which was not part of the current care planning process (not under a special guardianship order or residence order or (from 22 April 2014) a child arrangement order). E13 - Left care to live with parent(s), relative(s), or other person(s) with no parental responsibility. E41 - Residence order/ child arrangement order which sets out with whom the child is to live) granted E45 - Special guardianship order made to former foster carer(s), who was/are a relative(s) or friend(s) E46 - Special guardianship order made to former foster carer(s), other than relative(s) or friend(s) E47 - Special guardianship order made to carer(s), other than former foster carer(s), who was/are a relative(s) or friend(s) E48 - Special guardianship order made to carer(s), other than former foster carer(s), other than relative(s) or friend(s) E5 - Moved into independent living arrangement and no longer looked-after: supportive accommodation providing formalised advice/support arrangements (such as most hostels, young men’s Christian association, foyers, staying close and care leavers projects). Includes both children leaving care before and at age 18 E6 - Moved into independent living arrangement and no longer looked-after: accommodation providing no formalised advice/support arrangements (such as bedsit, own flat, living with friend(s)). Includes both children leaving care before and at age 18 E7 - Transferred to residential care funded by adult social care services E9 - Sentenced to custody E14 - Accommodation on remand ended E15 - Age assessment determined child is aged 18 or over and E5, E6 and E7 do not apply, such as an unaccompanied asylum-seeking child (UASC) whose age has been disputed E16 - Child moved abroad E17 - Aged 18 (or over) and remained with current carers (inc under staying put arrangements) E8 - Period of being looked-after ceased for any other reason (where none of the other reasons apply) Further detail on when some of the codes should be used is provided below: E4A - Relates to a planned move where the child returns home as part of their agreed care plan. This return home has been discussed as part of the care planning process and happens within a planned timeframe. E4B - Relates to an unplanned move - includes instances where the child’s return home is immediate (for example, within 24 hours) and has not been discussed as part of the care planning process or does not occur within the planned timeframe. This would include instances where a child under a voluntary arrangement is removed from care by their parents and this was not agreed as part of the care planning process. E13 - Left care to live with parents, relatives, or other person with no parental responsibility – this code should be used if the child left care to live with parents, relatives or another person, but this person did not have parental responsibility. E14 - Accommodation on remand ended – this code should be used if a child was remanded to youth detention accommodation and has stopped their episode of care because they are no longer remanded. E15 - Age assessment determined child is aged 18 or over and E5, E6 and E7 do not apply, for example, an unaccompanied asylum seeking child whose age has been disputed – this code should be used if the episode of care ended because the age was disputed, an assessment revealed the child was 18 or over and the young person was not transferred to residential care and did not move into independent living arrangements. E16 - Moved abroad – use this code if the child left care because they moved to another country, including when a child is deported. E17 - Aged 18 (or over) and remained with current carers (inc under staying put arrangements) – use this code whenever the young person has ceased care and remains with their former carers, irrespective of placement type. Young people in foster care who are ‘staying put’ are only a subset of this group. E8 - Period of being looked-after ceased for any other reason – this code should never be used purely because a child has reached the age of 18 as this can already be deduced from his/her date of birth. It should only be used when none of the alternative destinations listed are appropriate. E8 should also be used when a child turns 18 and continues to be missing. If a looked-after child is sentenced to custody and placed in a secure children’s home, secure training centre or young offenders’ institution, their status in that setting depends on the legislative framework under which the custodial sentence is applied. If the child is subject to a Care Order (Section 31 Children Act 1989) then they remain looked-after regardless of being sentenced to custody. If the child is accommodated in care by a voluntary agreement under Section 20 of the Children Act 1989, then they cease to be looked-after when they are admitted to custody. | SSDA903, AnnexA, RIIA | |
