Level of Need: Performance Indicators

• NI51: Commissioning Comprehensive CAMHS: Salford has been estimated as ‘underachieving’, although performance has improved since 2008
• NI 50: Emotional Health of Children & Young People – 67% in 2008 felt they were supported (slightly above average score for North West and England as a whole)
