Cost to the public purse
Dear Buckinghamshire Council,
Please share the average cost to the public purse per child accessing the following services:
• Specialist Teaching Service
• Chiltern & South Bucks Children & Young People’s Therapy Service for Selective Mutism
• South Bucks School Nurse team
• CAMHS
• Tribunal costs
By accessing I mean being referred to, assessed by, and receiving care/support by these services.
I understand there are in-house deals and allocated budgets, however there is still a cost for each child/case to the public purse.
To obtain the average cost I am satisfied with the overall yearly spend (or allocated budget) and the total number of children who accessed the service, or the overall amount of appeals in the case of tribunals.
Yours faithfully,
Mrs C Dyke
