What are Learning Reviews?

Learning reviews are undertaken when there has been a death or a serious injury has occurred to an adult or child caused by abuse or neglect.

Prior to the introduction of Working Together to Safeguard Children 2018, CSPRs were known as Serious Case Reviews (SCRs), but SCRs are no longer a part of current practice.

Child Safeguarding Practice Reviews (CSPR)

All partner agencies have a responsibility to inform the Telford and Wrekin Safeguarding Partnership of any serious incident which they think should be considered for either a national or local CSPR. The cases are discussed at the CSPR Panel, and the Rapid Review Process instigated.

There are two types of review:

  • local reviews: where safeguarding partners consider a case raises issues of importance within their area; and

  • national reviews: where the CSPR Panel consider a case that raises issues which are complex or of national importance.
