Learning from Significant Case Reviews

This report presents the findings from analyses of 25 significant case reviews that concerned 44 children and young people, carried out by child protection committees in Scotland between 1 April 2015 and 31 March 2018.  Twenty-two out of the 25 SCRs related to incidences of child abuse and/ or neglect, of which 19 related specifically to children under 5 years old. Findings from this review highlight the importance of children’s service staff being well supported to be confident and competent in their assessments and making good use of chronologies.
