Children: Care Homes

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what assessment his Department has made of the efficacy of Ofsted's registration process for new residential care centres for children with severe and multiple additional behavioural needs.

Answer

The department has not carried out an assessment of the efficacy of Ofsted’s registration process for children’s social care settings. However, the requirement to register and registration procedure is contained in part 2 of the Care Standards Act 2000 and this sets out a number of safeguards to ensure its efficacy.
