The Welsh Government commissioned the Institute of Public Care (IPC) to carry out an analysis of outcomes for children and young people 4 to 5 years after a final Care Order.   
  
The study set out to explore the placement journeys for children in care in Wales, how these compare with the outcomes aspired to in their Care Plan and the key success factors associated with positive placements.  
  
The large scale analysis involved all of the 1,076 children and young people with a final Care Order made in Wales in the 12 month period from April 2012 to March 2013\. A smaller representative sub\-sample of 79 cases was then drawn from five local authority areas to allow more in\-depth analysis to be conducted.  
  
The report found:  


* Over three quarters of the whole cohort of children experienced a high level of placement stability – with either no placement move (30%) or only one (46%) placement move over the 4\-5 year period that the study looked at.
* 71% of the smaller sub\-sample had overall positive outcomes in relation to their home environment, communication and attachments; education; physical health and the absence of offending; 19% had mixed outcomes; and 10% had overall negative outcomes;
* Whilst 78% of the whole cohort of children was officially recorded as having a primary need for care relating to abuse and neglect, the in\-depth analysis found that almost all children in the sub\-sample had experienced abuse and neglect before the Care Order was made.

The study is part of the work of the Improving Outcomes for Children Ministerial Advisory Group. The Group is taking forward a significant programme of work to help safely reduce the number of children coming into care, improve outcomes for children already in care and better support care leavers to adulthood and independence.  
  
Minister for Children and Social Care, Huw Irranca\-Davies said:  

> “Improving outcomes and life chances for care experienced children is a key priority for me. This Government is committed to ensuring the life chances of looked after children are the same as for other children.  
> 
> “I am pleased to see many children and young people are doing well in care in Wales, with over three quarters of the children this study looked at experiencing a high level of placement stability. The study highlights the good work that is taking place by both children’s social services and their education partners throughout Wales to secure the best possible outcomes for children in care. 
> 
> “However, there are still significant challenges for children in care in Wales, particularly in supporting children who are dealing with the impact of abuse and trauma. We must learn and use the findings from this work to help ensure the emotional health and wellbeing needs of children are addressed in a therapeutic way and continue to focus on providing high quality and long\-term placements that will help to meet their needs.”

Comisiynodd Llywodraeth Cymru y Sefydliad Gofal Cyhoeddus i ddadansoddi canlyniadau plant a phobl ifanc 4 i 5 mlynedd ar ôl eu Gorchymyn Gofal terfynol.   
  
Bwriad yr astudiaeth oedd archwilio hynt lleoliadau plant mewn gofal yng Nghymru, y ffordd yr oedd hyn yn cymharu â'r canlyniadau yr anelir atynt yn eu Cynllun Gofal a'r ffactorau llwyddiant allweddol sy'n ymwneud â lleoliadau cadarnhaol.   
  
Roedd y ddadansoddiad mawr yn cynnwys pob un o'r 1,076 o blant a phobl ifanc a gafodd Orchymyn Gofal terfynol yng Nghymru rhwng mis Ebrill 2012 a mis Mawrth 2013\. Yna, er mwyn cynnal dadansoddiad mwy manwl, defnyddiwyd is\-sampl cynrychioladol o 79 o achosion o bum ardal awdurdod lleol.   
  
Daeth yr adroddiad i'r casgliadau canlynol:   


* Bod dros dri chwarter o'r holl blant mewn lleoliad sefydlog – gyda 30% heb symud o gwbl, a 46% wedi symud unwaith yn ystod y cyfnod o 4\-5 mlynedd dan sylw yn yr astudiaeth;
* Bod 71% o'r is\-sampl llai wedi profi canlyniadau cadarnhaol mewn perthynas ag amgylchedd eu cartref, cyfathrebu ac ymlyniad; addysg; iechyd corfforol a dim troseddu; roedd 19% wedi profi canlyniadau cymysg a 10% wedi profi canlyniadau negyddol ar y cyfan;
* Er mai 78% o'r holl blant oedd wedi'u cofnodi'n swyddogol fel rhai sydd angen gofal yn bennaf yn sgil cam\-drin ac esgeulustod, daeth y dadansoddiad manwl i'r casgliad bod bron pob un o'r plant yn yr is\-sampl wedi'u cam\-drin a'u hesgeuluso cyn i’r Gorchymyn Gofal gael ei wneud.

  
Mae'r astudiaeth yn rhan o waith Grŵp Cynghori'r Gweinidog ar Wella Canlyniadau i Blant. Mae'r Grŵp hwn yn datblygu rhaglen waith sylweddol i helpu i leihau'n ddiogel nifer y plant sy'n cael eu rhoi mewn gofal, gwella canlyniadau i blant sydd eisoes yn derbyn gofal a darparu cymorth gwell i'r rheini sy'n gadael gofal i fod yn oedolion annibynnol.   
  
Dywedodd y Gweinidog Gofal Cymdeithasol a Phlant, Huw Irranca\-Davies:  

> “Mae gwella canlyniadau a chyfleoedd bywyd plant sydd wedi derbyn gofal yn flaenoriaeth allweddol i mi. Mae'r Llywodraeth hon wedi ymrwymo i sicrhau bod plant sy'n derbyn gofal yn cael yr un cyfleoedd mewn bywyd â phlant eraill. 
> 
> “Rwy'n falch o weld bod cymaint o blant a phobl ifanc sydd mewn gofal yng Nghymru yn gwneud yn dda, gyda thros dri chwarter o'r plant dan sylw yn yr astudiaeth hon mewn lleoliad sefydlog. Mae'r astudiaeth yn nodi'r gwaith da sy'n cael ei wneud gan wasanaethau cymdeithasol plant a'u partneriaid addysg yng Nghymru i sicrhau'r canlyniadau gorau posibl ar gyfer plant mewn gofal. 
> 
> “Fodd bynnag, mae plant mewn gofal yng Nghymru yn dal i wynebu heriau sylweddol, yn enwedig o ran cefnogi plant sy'n delio ag effaith cam\-drin a thrawma. Rhaid inni ddysgu a defnyddio'r canfyddiadau o'r gwaith hwn i helpu i sicrhau bod anghenion iechyd a llesiant plant yn cael sylw mewn ffordd therapiwtig a pharhau i ganolbwyntio ar ddarparu lleoliadau hirdymor o ansawdd uchel a fydd yn helpu i ddiwallu eu hanghenion.”
