TY - JOUR PY - 2009// TI - Prevalence, people and processes: a consideration of the implications of Lord Laming's progress report on the protection of children in England JO - Child abuse review A1 - Driscoll, Jennifer J. SP - 333 EP - 345 VL - 18 IS - 5 N2 - Media coverage of the death of Baby P revived national concerns about the standard of child safeguarding practice in England following the implementation of widespread structural changes in response to the Victoria Climbié Inquiry chaired by Lord Laming in 2003. This paper discusses the recommendations of Lord Laming's recent Progress Report. It questions whether the scale of the challenge in improving child protection is fully recognised and considers briefly the culture of social care in the UK and the barriers to effective reform.
