The CHSCP case review protocol sets out the local response to serious child safeguarding incidents. It should be read alongside the statutory guidance in Working Together to Safeguard Children 2018 and guidance issued by the Child Safeguarding Practice Review Panel.

This form should be completed for cases that do not meet the definition of a ‘serious child safeguarding case’, but nevertheless raise issues of importance for the City of London and/or Hackney. That might, for example, include where there has been good practice, poor practice or where there have been ‘near miss’ events. Safeguarding partners may choose to undertake a local child safeguarding practice review in these or other circumstances.

The Child Safeguarding Practice Review Panel is an independent panel commissioning national reviews of serious child safeguarding cases.
