Here is a unique study which, for the first time, presents an accurate picture of the pattern of local authority adoptions and raises important questions for policy makers, elected members, managers and practitioners.

The research reports on the first detailed analysis of the Department of Health's Children Looked After database. The information is revealing, and in some cases, shocking. It also provides a benchmark against which local authorities can evaluate the performance of their child placement practice as well as reflect on how to improve their services.
