Children in Care and Adoption Performance Tables

The Children in Care and Adoption Performance Tables show, against 15 key indicators, how each local authority is performing. The data we have used is already available. We want the tables to help generate debate, discussion and, above, all action. We’ll be updating the tables as new data becomes available. And we will be talking to local authorities and other partners about how the tables can be developed and extended.

A table is provided for each of the indicators mainly based on a three year rolling average. Where available, data are provided for 2011, 2012, 2013. The only exceptions are the indicators on absence from school and schools performing below the floor target for which only two years and one year of data are available.
