The purpose of these newsletters is to update LAs on developments regarding the Children Looked After return, introduce new materials and respond to issues that are likely to affect some or all LAs. They are emailed to those nominated within their LA as the day-to-day contacts for CLA. They will be issued on a monthly basis in the run up to the collection, and then on an irregular basis as and when we have useful or important news or information to share. The newsletters can be downloaded from the associated resources on this page.

The most recent CLA newsletter was issued on 28 January 2011.

If there are items you’d like us to cover in future, contact the Data Services Group (DSG) Helpdesk.
