Children Looked After Payments (Out of Borough)

Children Looked After Payments (Out Of Borough)

For schools in the Croydon Borough who have children looked after from out of the borough, we are commencing talks with other Local Authority’s to find out what they wish to do.

As of yet, we have received these replies on how you will be paid. Please find the borough that your CLA is under and see how they wish to pay you. If they decide to pay your CLA payments through us then we will pass the money on to you, once we have received it, via the usual funding process. If your CLA is from a borough not stated below please email to let us know.
