Updates to this page
-
The dataset has been revised so that the total number of places in children’s homes (all types and the 'children’s home' subtype) in Table 6b includes 16 places that were previously omitted due to missing data from a small number of providers. The publication date for the most recent inspection of URN 2614937 (event number 10330393) in the ‘Provider level at 31 March 2025’ table has been corrected to 16 January 2025. It was previously shown incorrectly as December 2025.
