The Children Looked After Team works with children who are under 16 years old and have a care plan of long term foster care. Children transfer into the team after care proceedings conclude and they remain with us until they turn sixteen. We have manageable caseloads of between 14 and 16 children for a full‑time worker. This role requires a social worker who has experience of working with children who are long term looked after.
