Improve Safeguarding and Protect Children

Improve Safeguarding and Protect Children — 6 signatures. Status: rejected.

Petition background

Require independent reviews of safeguarding failures, enhanced training on child sexual exploitation, and greater accountability for agencies that fail to protect vulnerable children.

Additional details

Child sexual exploitation has exposed serious safeguarding failures across the UK. We believe stronger accountability is needed when agencies fail to protect vulnerable children. We call for enhanced training for social workers and safeguarding professionals, independent reviews of serious failures, better information sharing between agencies, and safeguarding decisions to be based solely on evidence and the welfare of the child.
