This report assesses the progress being made across England to implement effective arrangements for safeguarding children. The kernel of the task was to evaluate the good practice that has been developed since the publication of the report of the Independent Statutory Inquiry following the death of Victoria ClimbiĂŠ, to identify the barriers that are now preventing good practice becoming standard practice, and recommend actions to be taken to make systematic improvements in safeguarding children across the country.
