NCB Now: Conference to look at safeguarding

1 min read
NCB will hold a conference to review safeguarding arrangements for children following the Baby P tragedy.

Baby P's death provoked an unprecedented media and political storm, which raised questions about the adequacy of the child protection system, the state of professional practice across all disciplines, and the impact of policy changes on frontline practice. In response, the government ordered a series of reviews and initiatives, most notably asking Lord Laming to review whether the reforms brought in following his inquiry into the death of Victoria Climbie are being implemented systematically.
