About
The Department for Education awarded a contract to British Refugee Council for the delivery of a training programme to build expertise and capacity among foster carers and support workers of unaccompanied asylum seeking children (UASC).
The training enables participants to understand and respond to the particular needs and vulnerabilities of UASC and to better recognise signs of trafficking and quickly gain trust to prevent children from running away from safe placements.
The contract, valued at £184,343, required bidders to demonstrate a proven track record in delivering quality training of this nature, capacity to start within six weeks of award, and relevant experience with local authorities and placement providers for UASC.
