Description

We require a suitably qualified consultancy to conduct research into the Children, Young People and Family Services funding formula. The research is expected to meet the aims, outputs and outcomes below.

Key aims of the research:

-Articulating the potential implications for London local authorities of the proposed Children, Young People and Family Services relative needs formula

-Gathering robust evidence to support London Councils' priorities for the new formula - building on, and adding to, our initial critique of the proposals

-Identifying alternative national datasets that government could use that would better reflect demand for CYPF services in London boroughs and/or support long-term gains through prevention and early intervention

-Identifying drivers, variables and indicators that better represent demand for CYPF services in London boroughs - with particular regard to preventative services in children's social care.
