    Brief

    Oldham Council is seeking qualified inspectors to conduct Regulation 44 visits and produce subsequent reports for children's residential settings. These inspections ensure care standards meet Regulation 44(2) requirements of the Children's Homes (England) Regulations 2015, enabling the Local Authority to fulfill its statutory inspection duties. The scope includes all current in-house residential settings and any future additions to the estate, covering standard residential care, specialist short-term support services, and semi-independent accommodation. Inspectors will assess care quality, safeguarding practices, and operational compliance, supporting Oldham's continuous improvement framework. Successful suppliers should demonstrate expertise in children's residential care standards, inspection methodologies, and report writing that informs service improvement.
