3. Placement Cost Information
Please provide the following:
a) Average weekly cost paid by your authority for a placement in an external/private children’s residential home for the current financial year (or most recent period). This is determined by the child’s assessed needs, presenting behaviours, identified complexities in meeting needs, solo or group home, risks and staff ratios to child so if we were to share an average this would not be a true reflection as the range is too wide.
b) The average weekly cost for the previous financial year (or equivalent previous period). Please see above response
