NHS England says it does not know how many hospital beds are needed to deal with increasing demand for children's mental health services.
In an official report, it said too many children were having to travel to access inpatient beds.
A leading charity called the review "distressing", highlighting both a lack of capacity and resources. Ministers admit the system is "too fragmented".
NHS England promised to provide 50 new beds urgently.
