Safeguarding children. The third joint chief inspectors’ report on arrangements to safeguard children (8th July 2008)
The report, ‘Safeguarding Children’ is published every three years. It assesses how well agencies are working at both national and local levels to safeguard children and young people. Much has changed in the landscape of children’s services since the previous Safeguarding Children report in 2005. As a result of improved safeguarding arrangements, most children now feel safe in their homes and communities, and are receiving the quality of care and support that they need. But some children and young people are still not well enough served by public services. This is particularly the case for those who are looked after by their local authority, who are in secure settings or are asylum-seeking children, according to the third joint Chief Inspectors’ review of arrangements to safeguard children.
