Note:Table excludes children who are on a planned series of short term placements.
In years 2000 - 2004 children with unreported ethnic origin were allocated to an ethnic group rather than being presented as 'unknown'.
In 2000 to 2004 some totals do not exactly equal the sum of their component parts due to the effects of rounding.
Cells containing * represent small numbers that are suppressed to maintain confidentiality.
