Abstract
The importance of safeguarding vulnerable children from harm remains a key priority. Organisational changes to the structure of child protection services in England were introduced in 2018, altering the review process for serious safeguarding cases. This article provides an overview of the new multi-agency arrangements and summarizes key learning points from the final analysis of Serious Case Reviews between 2017 and 2019 and the annual review of Local Child Safeguarding Practice Reviews from 2021. Recurring themes highlighted in the reviews include the problem of neglect, contextual safeguarding, and race and racism. We will also consider three aspects of professional practice which influence safeguarding work: the complexities of ‘effective challenge’; interprofessional communication; and managing professional disagreement.
