Four years after the publication of the influential Munro Report (2011) this important publication draws together a range of experts working in the field of child protection to critically examine what impact the reforms have had on multi-agency child protection systems in this country, at both local and national level. With a particular emphasis on early intervention, vulnerable adolescents and effective multi-agency responses to young people at risk, specialists from policy and practice alongside academics in different areas of children’s services consider progress in improving child protection arrangements, in transforming services and the challenges that remain. Local Safeguarding Children Boards (LSCBs), the statutory bodies responsible for local scrutiny of child protection arrangements, are now subject to Ofsted inspection and this publication considers the role of LSCBs, how services should respond to the most vulnerable children and what 'good' services look like.
Maggie Blyth is currently Independent Chair of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Safeguarding Children Boards. For the last nine years she has held a ministerial appointment as Member of the Parole Board for England and Wales. She has also been a Member of the Health and Care Professions Council for three years.
Maggie was formerly a senior civil servant at the Youth Justice Board for England and Wales with oversight of practice improvement for all youth offending services and juvenile secure establishments across both countries. She is co-author (with Enver Solomon) of Effective safeguarding for children and young people: What next after Munro? (Policy Press, 2012).
