Serious case reviews: lessons being learnt but more still to do

15 Oct 2009

Latest evaluation of 173 serious case reviews (SCRs) has found that local areas are learning lessons from cases when a child dies or is seriously injured as a result of abuse or neglect.

Ofsted’s report Learning lessons from serious case reviews: year 2 has found 23% of reviews are judged good and 43% adequate. However, weaknesses still exist with over a third of reviews (34%) judged as inadequate. Even more needs to be done to ensure the review process improves the way children are protected from harm across the country.
