Notice Title

Resolving Immigration Issues for Children in Care Pilot Project

Notice Description

The GLA is grant funding the London Borough of Ealing, to work in partnership with an experienced children's immigration specialist organisation, to develop new ways to identify and resolve the immigration and citizenship needs of children and young people in local authority care. Ealing is looking for an experienced provider in this field to work in partnership with the Council to contribute towards a programme which aims to develop a model that can be implemented across local authorities to embed positive practice among children's social care teams. It is envisaged the legacy of this pilot programme will ensure improved systems for the identification and support of children in care with immigration needs, as well as using the learnings from this programme to inform national policymaking and resource-allocation for local authorities to meet this need. This funding will enable the local authority to work with an experienced provider organisation to develop, embed and test a working model to identify and resolve the immigration needs of the children in its care. Through a competitive tendering process, Ealing will award a one year contract of PS50,000 to a children's immigration expert organisation(s) to do the following: * Provide SRA regulated, or up to OISC level 3 accredited expert immigration advice and representation; * Deliver training for local authority staff, specifically within social care teams, on how to identify and support children and young people with immigration and citizenship needs; * Develop durable models and casework systems that can be implemented by the local authority for long-term improvements in identification and support of children and young people in local authority care with immigration and citizenship needs beyond this programme.
