A child may have none, or more than one disability and so the total number of disabilities will differ from the number of children.

SearchInformation on the numbers of children referred to and assessed by children's social services for the year ending March.
Source: Children in Need census
Figures have been calculated by the Department for Education ('DfE') based upon all information provided in the CIN return.
A child in need is one who has been referred to children's social care services, and who has been assessed, usually through an initial assessment, to be in need of social care services. A child can have more than one episode of need throughout the year but episodes should not overlap. If a child has more than one episode, then each is counted in the figures.
