Help text: This is the number of children in need as at 31st March with the recorded disability of 'Learning Difficulties' expressed as a percentage of all children in need. Figures have been calculated by DfE based upon all information provided in the Children in need return. A child in need is one who has been referred to children's social care services, and who has been assessed to be in need of social care services. The number supported during the year may be much higher, as numerous episodes of care will have started and finished during the year. This is an indicative number of cases supported by the authority at any one point in time. A child may have more than one disability recorded. Therefore, the percentage of children in need at 31 March with a disability recorded broken down by disability won't always sum to 100. The total figures for England and regional totals are rounded to the nearest 10. Sub totals may not add up to the England total and regional totals due to rounding. Taken from Characteristics of Children in need, table B2. Any number between 1 and 5 inclusive, or a percentage where the difference between the numerator and denominator is between 1 and 5, has been suppressed.
