Hello everybody.
Those of you studying anything relating to child protection will probably want to have a look at the interim Munro report which came out today. There's every chance your lecturers will have already mentioned its imminent arrival so I won't go into depth about the scope of the report, but the initial summary focuses on the need to cut paperwork and proposes to alter a culture of meeting targets at the detriment to the welfare of the child.
Just to say you can find the report called 'The Munro Review of Child Protection: Interim Report, The Child’s Journey' by linking here.
One startling fact from the report states that the listed regulations for social workers is now 55 times longer than in 1974 when it was first introduced.
But I guess that won't come as news to any of you already dealing with child protection issues on a regular basis...
