Background: Looked After Children (LAC) known to be vulnerable Lack of research evidence on effective interventions Aims: 1. To assess educational outcomes LAC in Camden 2. To identify means of extending this analysis to the national cohort

A good news break!

Discussion: Unanswered questions and the national picture Dept. for Education publishes Statistical first release Narrow focus on cohort ‘attainment gap’ National Pupil Database- richer more complete data Can follow up children once they have left care

Conclusions LAC in Camden, nationally and internationally have poorer educational outcomes than their peers. To enhance our understanding we need more detailed analysis. Valuable data is collected but has not been analysed
