145 <p>
145 See Decision to Look After and Care Planning for procedures relating to the initial decision
to look after a child, and the drafting and approval of the care plan and other essential
documentation.

157 1. Consultation
157 </h2>
158 <p>
158 At the point that it is determined that a placement may be required, and throughout the
subsequent process of identification, planning and placement, the social worker must consult
and take account of the views of the following people:
158 </p>
159 <ol style="list-style-type:lower-alpha">
160 <li>
160 The child;
160 </li>
161 <li>
161 The child's parents, or those with parental responsibility;
161 </li>
162 <li>
162 Anyone who is not a parent but has been caring for or looking after the child;
162 </li>
163 <li>
163 Other members of the child's family who are significant to the child;
163 </li>
164 <li>
164 The child's school or education authority;
164 </li>
165 <li>
165 The Youth Offending Service, if the child is known to them;
165 </li>
166 <li>
166 Any other relevant person, e.g. nursery, health care professional, Children's Guardian.
166 </li>
167 </ol>
168 <p>
168 The views of these people should be given by them, in writing, or should be recorded by the
social worker.

177 Placement Request
177 </h3>
178 <p>
178 Where a decision has been made that a child requires a residential placement, the child's
social worker should request a placement by contacting the Placement Officer.
178 </p>
179 <p>
179 In making this request, the social worker will be asked to provide information about the
child, the type of placement sought, the care plan, the date by which the placement is
required, the likely length of time for which the placement is required and the expected
level of contact between the child and parents. The social worker should also outline any
risks associated in making the placement.
179 </p>
180 <p>
180 The Placement Officer will check whether an in-house residential placement is available that
appears to be appropriate to meet the child's needs.
180 </p>
181 <p>
181 If such a placement is available or if there is a possibility of a placement by the required
date, the social worker will be advised accordingly.
181 </p>
182 <p>
182 If no appropriate in-house placements are available and the child requires a placement
without delay, the Placement Officer will obtain the agreement of the
182 <a href="pr_desg_man.html#external">
182 Designated Manager (External Placements)
182 </a>
182 and contact other providers to identify a suitable placement.
182 </p>
183 <h3>
183 2.2
183 <a id="ident_approval">
183 </a>
183 Identification and Approval of Placement
183 </h3>
184 <p>
184 Once a resource has been identified, the social worker should contact the relevant
registered manager directly to discuss the available placement further.
184 </p>
185 <p>
185 Wherever possible, the child's social worker should visit potential homes and as required
consult with other professionals, prior to a decision about the appropriateness of a
placement being made. The placement provider should be able to provide evidence that
supports the appropriateness and effectiveness of any therapeutic approach or model of care
they intend to use.
185 </p>
186 <p>
186 The proposed placement will then be presented to the social worker's manager for approval.
186 </p>
187 <p>
187 If the proposed placement is with an external provider, the Designated Manager (External
Placements) must approve the specific terms and conditions of the placement, which must be
included in the contract with the provider.
187 </p>
188 <p>
188 Where the residential placement is outside the local authority area, see also
188 <a href="p_out_area_place.html">
188 Out of Area Placements Procedure
188 </a>
188 .
188 </p>
189 <p>
189 <span class="bold">
189 N.B.
189 </span>
189 In addition to the above approvals, in order to avoid placements that disrupt a child's
education, the
189 <a href="pr_desg_man.html#nom_off_disruption">
189 Nominated Officer
189 </a>
189 must approve any change of placement affecting a child in Key Stage 4 except in an
emergency/ where the placement is terminated because of an immediate risk of serious harm to
the child or to protect others from serious injury - see
189 <a href="p_educ_lac.html">
189 Education of Children in Care and Previously Looked After Children Procedure
189 </a>
189 .
189 </p>
190 <p>
190 Equally, any placement made outside the local authority area should be able to meet the
child's physical and mental health / emotional needs, particularly where ongoing treatment
is being undertaken or is assessed as required. (See also
190 <a href="p_healthcare_assmt.htm#ooa">
190 Health Care Assessments and Plans Procedure, Out of Area Placements
190 </a>
190 ).
190 </p>
191 <p>
191 Once the relevant manager/s approves the placement, the placement planning process can start
- see
191 <a href="#place_planning">
191 Section 2.3, Placement Planning
191 </a>
191 . An understanding of the provider's therapeutic approach should inform the child's
Placement Plan.
191 </p>
192 <p>
192 The social worker may then arrange visits to the proposed placement, with the child (if old
enough) and parents (if appropriate).

193 <h3>

193 <a id="place_planning">
193 </a>
193 Placement Planning
193 </h3>
194 <p>
194 Before the child is placed, the child's social worker will liaise with the relevant
registered manager to provide details of the child's immediate child care needs and to
arrange a Placement Planning Meeting - see
194 <a href="p_place_disrup_meet.html">
194 Placement Planning and Disruption Meetings Procedure
194 </a>
194 . The meeting will usually be held in the child's new placement.
194 </p>
195 <p>
195 Participants will include:
195 </p>
196 <ul>
197 <li>
197 The parent;
197 </li>
198 <li>
198 The child (if appropriate);
198 </li>
199 <li>
199 The key residential staff;
199 </li>
200 <li>
200 Any other relevant professionals, e.g. a representative from the child's school;
200 </li>
201 <li>
201 Anyone else considered appropriate or who will have a role in the placement.
201 </li>
202 </ul>
203 <p>
203 The purpose of the Placement Planning Meeting is to finalise the Placement Plan (recorded on
the placement information record) and the details of the child's needs in the placement
including the daily routine, and discuss the Care Plan. The Placement Plan provides clarity
for the child and carer about; how day to day parenting tasks will be shared between the
carer and the responsible authority – including clarity about financial arrangements,
arrangements for family time / contact; the circumstances leading to the child becoming
looked after; what the long term plan is for the child and its timeframe and what the
objectives are for the placement being offered and how those reflect the Care Plan.
203 </p>
204 <p>
204 This will involve a discussion of the child's needs, including their personal history,
religious persuasion, cultural and linguistic background and racial origin, their health and
education needs and how these are to be met. It will also include the arrangements for
registering the child with local health professionals (GP, dentist and optician). The
Responsible Authority is required to draw up a Placement Plan before the child is placed, or
if not practicable, within 5 working days from the start of the placement.
204 </p>
205 <p>
205 For children placed in residential care, the Placement Plan should cover the following
issues in addition to those for all placements set out in the Decision to Look After and
Care Planning Procedure:
205 </p>
206 <ul>
207 <li>
207 The type of accommodation to be provided and the address;
207 </li>
208 <li>
208 Where the authority has, or is notified of, Child Protection concerns relating to the
child, or the child has gone missing from the placement or from any previous placement,
the day to day arrangements put in place by the appropriate person (placement provider) to
keep the child safe;
208 </li>
209 <li>
209 Any behaviours which have been of concern to previous carers and which may have
contributed to previous breakdown of a placement and how the Placement Provider will seek
to manage and respond to these;
209 </li>
210 <li>
210 The child's personal history, religious persuasion, cultural and linguistic background and
racial origin;
210 </li>
211 <li>
211 Where the child is accommodated, the respective responsibilities of the Local Authority
and parents/anyone with parental responsibility; any delegation of responsibility by
parents/anyone with Parental Responsibility to the Local Authority for the child's
day-to-day care; the expected duration of the arrangements and the steps to bring the
arrangements to an end, including arrangements for the child to return to live with
parents/anyone with Parental Responsibility; where the child is aged 16 or over and agrees
to being provided with accommodation under Section 20 Children Act 1989, that fact;
211 </li>
212 <li>
212 Delegated Authority issues the circumstances in which it is necessary to obtain in advance
the Local Authority's approval for the child to take part in school trips or overnight
stays, etc;
212 </li>
213 <li>
213 The Local Authority's arrangements for the financial support of the child during the
placement;
213 </li>
214 <li>
214 Information concerning the child's health and education, contact arrangements, visits by
the responsible authority and any arrangements for visits by an independent visitor. The
content of the child's Health Plan and PEP;
214 </li>
215 <li>
215 The child's religion and culture and the manner in which these are reflected in their
daily life and any help the child may need to keep these links;
215 </li>
216 <li>
216 Arrangements for contact between children, birth parents and siblings and specified other
friends and relatives.
216 </li>
217 </ul>
218 <p>
218 The meeting also provides an opportunity to ensure that the registered manager has a copy of
any relevant court order and that full information is shared about any behaviour management
issues.
218 </p>
219 <p>
219 Wherever possible, the Placement Planning Meeting should be used to plan any introductions
to the placement, for example whether arrangements should be made for the child, parents and
the social worker to visit the home and/or whether it may be appropriate to have an
introductory overnight stay. If this is not possible, arrangements may be made for
residential staff to visit the child and parents; or for information about the home to be
sent to the child and/or the parents, for example about routines in the home, bedtimes,
meals, visitors, pocket money, school, privacy and the overall expectations in relation to
the child's behaviour within the home.
219 </p>
220 <p>
220 If it is not possible to hold a Placement Planning Meeting before the placement, because of
the urgency of the placement, it must take place in order that the Placement Plan is
prepared within 5 working days of the start of the placement.
220 </p>
221 The child's social worker will complete and arrange for the circulation of the Care Plan and
Placement Plan/Placement Information Record to the child, parents and residential staff.
222 <p>
222 At the time of the placement, the residential staff must also be given any additional
information about details of the child's day to day needs which may not be covered by the
Placement Information Record but are important to ensure that the home is in the best
possible position to help the child settle in the new placement, for example any particular
fears at night-time or other emotional needs.
222 </p>
223 <p>
223 The child's social worker must provide the child with written information about the Children
in Care service, including information on using the authority's Complaints Procedure and
information about how to access an Advocate.
223 </p>
224 <p>
224 The social worker should ensure that any Children's Guide and other information about the
placement that is available for the child is also obtained and given to them.
224 </p>
225 <p>
225 In all cases, the child should be accompanied to the placement by the social worker and
helped to settle in. Suitable luggage should be used and a child's belongings should never
be transported in bin-bags or other inappropriate containers.
225 </p>
226 <h4>
226 Emergency placements
226 </h4>
227 <p>
227 Where an emergency placement is unavoidable local authorities should always make available
information that is vital to allow the Home to care safely for the child – e.g. medical
information, Safeguarding or Child Protection concerns and information about any known
serious behavioural issues which may place a child at risk of harm to themselves or others.
227 </p>
228 <p>
228 The placement plan must be agreed and signed by the nominated officer. Where this is a
placement at a distance this should be agreed by the Director of Children's Services.
228 </p>
229 <h3>
229 2.4
229 <a id="notif_place">
229 </a>
229 Notification of Placement
229 </h3>
230 <p>
230 The child's social worker will update the child's electronic record with the details of the
placement.
230 </p>
231 <p>
231 Where the placement is within an external provider, the Placement Officer as above will
notify the finance section so as to trigger payments as appropriate.
231 </p>
232 <p>
232 Notification of the placement will also be sent by the child's social worker to the Nurse
for Children in Care, the relevant person in the education service, the local Children's
Services (if the placement is in the area of a different local authority) and the child's
GP.
232 </p>
233 <p>
233 The child's social worker will notify all family members consulted and involved in the
decision-making process of the placement.
233 </p>
234 <p>
234 The child's social worker must also notify the allocated independent reviewing officer or,
if it is the first placement, the Independent Review Unit of the placement. This
notification will trigger the appointment of an Independent Reviewing Officer, if it is the
first placement, and the setting up of arrangements for a Case Review.
234 </p>
235 <p>
235 These notifications must be made in writing, advising of the placement decision and the name
and address of the children's home where the child is to be placed.
235 </p>
236 <p>
236 The notifications should be before the start of the placement or within 5 working days.
236 </p>
237 <p>
237 The child's social worker should also notify - preferably in writing but it may be verbally
- all those involved in the day to day arrangements for the child, including school and any
health professional or YOT worker actively involved with the child.
237 </p>
238 <p>
238 It will be necessary for the home or the child's social worker to ensure the child is
registered with a GP, Dentist and Optician, either retaining practices known to them (which
is preferable) or in the area where they are placed.
238 </p>
239 <p>
239 In relation to a first placement for a Child in Care it will also be necessary for the
social worker to liaise with the Nurse for Children in Care to arrange a Health Care
Assessment - see
239 <a href="p_healthcare_assmt.htm">

240 For any new placement, every effort should be made to enable the child to remain at the same
school unless there are reasons which would be detrimental to their well being. In order to
avoid placements that disrupt a child's education, the
240 <a href="pr_desg_man.html#nom_off_disruption" target="_blank" rel="noopener">
240 Nominated Officer
240 </a>
240 must approve any change of placement affecting a child in Key Stage 4 except in an
emergency/ where the placement is terminated because of an immediate risk of serious harm to
the child or to protect others from serious injury.
240 </p>
241 <p>
241 In the case of out of area placements, including placements at a distance, written
notification must be given to the area authority of the arrangements for the placement
before the placement is made or, if the placement is made in an emergency, within 5 working
days of the start of the placement unless it is not reasonably practicable to do so.
241 </p>
242 <p>
242 The notification must include:
242 </p>
243 <ol style="list-style-type:lower-roman">
244 <li>
244 Details of the assessment of the child's needs and the reasons why the placement is the

245 <li>
245 A copy of the child's care plan (unless already provided in the case of a Placement at a
