Serious Case Reviews
June 2011: Wolverhampton Safeguarding Children Board published a Serious Case Review Executive Summary (Child J),
see ‘Case Summaries’ below.
Also see Child Death Overview Panel.
When a child dies, and abuse or neglect are known or suspected to be a factor in the death, local organisations should consider immediately whether there are other children at risk of harm who require safeguarding.
When a child dies in such circumstances the Wolverhampton SCB always conducts a Serious Case Review into the involvement with the child and family of organisations and professionals to;
-
Establish whether there are lessons to be learned from the case about the way professionals and agencies work together to safeguard and promote the welfare of children
-
Identify clearly what those lessons are, how they will be acted upon, and what is expected to change as a result
-
Improve inter-agency working to better safeguard and promote the welfare of children.
