Children’s Wellbeing and Schools BillContribution
Foster carers also reported feeling less supported and valued, experiencing high levels of burnout and poor well-being. Social worker turnover makes that worse, which has implications for the children who need them. Children are increasingly being placed away from their home community. Multiple moves are common, as well as sibling groups being separated. All these factors should be addressed by the strategy proposed in the amendment in my name and that of three other noble Lords.
