    Brief

    Leeds City Council is seeking qualified inspectors to conduct Regulation 44 management visits to local authority children's homes. These independent inspections are required under Regulation 44 of the Children's Homes Regulations 2015 and the Quality Standards for Children's Homes. Inspectors will assess home operations, review monitoring data, and provide recommendations to ensure continuous improvement and compliance with regulatory standards. The role requires expertise in children's residential care and understanding of the Children Act 1989 guidance. Inspectors will work with registered persons to strengthen oversight mechanisms through independent scrutiny and internal monitoring integration.
