PROVIDERS

Commissioning - A survey of the views and experiences of providers of services to children, young people and families 2009 (28th January 2010)
This research aimed to gather robust evidence of providers’ views and experiences of being commissioned by local authorities and their Children’s Trusts partners in order to inform Department for Children, Schools and Families (DCSF) development of commissioning policy. It also sought to identify why providers enter or leave markets, expand or retrench services, their view of the future and to assess Compact compliance.

A total of 1,500 providers (public, private and third sector) of selected services for children, young people and families in England in 2009 completed a telephone survey. To be eligible, providers had to have bid for or received funding from local authorities, other Children’s Trust partners or from schools in 08-09.
