Children in Care and Care Experienced Young People - Market Position Statement 2025- 2027
We have a CLA & CEYA Sufficiency Strategy Corporate Parenting & Care Leaver Strategy that shapes and informs our service development. This strategy was agreed through data analysis of our looked after population; consultation with stakeholders; research of the process and practices for sourcing appropriate accommodation; and focused decision making on how to improve outcomes for children who are looked after. We are now able to set out our Market Position Statement (MPS) to effectively communicate our vision for the strategic commissioning of placements to the market, which is to meet our Sufficiency Duty by increasing placement choice and enable good matching, through:
- shaping our internal services
- working in partnership with stakeholders, and a range of public and private sector partners
- working in collaboration with public sector partners across the regional footprint where this offers identifiable benefits
- co-produce outcomes focused services acknowledging that there are a range of different methods for strategic commissioning with multiple partners who may be co-operatives, charities or commercial partners.
