The Fostering Services (England) Regulations 2011:
Birmingham Children's Trust Fostering Agency has a Statement of Purpose. This is produced to meet regulatory requirements and meet the Fostering service national minimum standards.
The aims and objectives of the Statement of Purpose are focused on the care of the children within placement and it shows how we will meet outcomes for all children and young people placed within our foster homes.
We have a statement of purpose which is available within our Local Resource section for all foster carers. This can and should be made available to our foster carers, staff and children and it is reflected in our policies, procedures, and practice guidance. It details the facilities and services the Agency provides along with the systems in place to ensure that the Agency meets its aims and objectives, working in partnership with Foster Carers, Birmingham City Council, Education and Health services, and other agencies and professionals and in partnership with Children and Young People and their families (please refer to the Statement of Purpose for full details).
Website
The current Statement of Purpose is available on the Birmingham Children's Trust Fostering Agency website.
