Sufficiency Statement template

The template is a free resource that councils can use to prepare their sufficiency statement. There are no restrictions on how the template should be used; councils can use it as it is, or they can adapt it to suit their needs. 

Sufficiency statements are a key tool used by councils to deliver necessary children’s social care services. Our team engaged with representatives from several councils across England through interviews and workshops to explore best practices and challenges in the production of sufficiency statements and to gather key insights on the development of a nationwide framework. 

The template was commissioned by the Local Government Association (LGA) and developed by Alma Economics.
