The DfES commissioned this study as part of the Every Child Matters: Change for Children programme, as looked-after children are a key priority within the programme.
The study explores the factors which most influence stability for looked-after children in order to try to better understand what, at individual local authority level, most influences performance in providing stability.
The study also looks at stability in terms of diversion from care, early intervention and prevention and, for those who are looked-after children, achieving permanence in the longer term.
