4.2.4 Placements in Children's Homes

 This section was updated in August 2010 to link with the Placements Policy.

Bromley Children and Young People Division does not provide in-house Children's Homes. Such placements are purchased externally and can only be made with the approval of the Head of Service.

See Decision to Look After Procedure and Placements Policy.

When a placement in an external Children's Home has been agreed, see Post Placement Arrangements Procedure. Once the placement is made, the provider's procedures will apply.
