Children’s social care

Inquiry

The Education Committee will assess the current system of children’s social care in England.

The Committee will focus on ways to improve early intervention, tackle rising demand and rising local authority spending, and support children with complex needs.

The inquiry will also look into protection for vulnerable children and support for care leavers, and aim to assess the social care market in the context of the private and public sector.
