In addition, the Telegraph article here provides a excellent summary of the failings in child protection as applied to Child P.
The report said: "Serious Case Reviews carried out by local Safeguarding Children Boards and evaluated by Ofsted were judged to be inadequate in around a quarter of cases and there were serious delays in producing them in almost all cases.
"These shortcomings limit their value as a means of sharing and improving practice."
Miss Gilbert said that while she was encouraged that the report had shown that "so much is going well" for children, young people and adult learners, she was "frustrated" that there was "still too much that is patently inadequate and too many instances where the rate of improvement is unacceptably slow".
She added: "Too many vulnerable children are still being let down by the system and we are failing to learn from the worst cases of abuse."
