Child Protection
Failing children's services teams are being taken away from councils and handed over to trusts. Jenny Chryss asks if the government's radical plans to overhaul them will work.
The recent deaths of children at the hands of family members have revealed some children's social work departments are still failing children some nine years after the death of Baby P. In some regions the reaction of the Government has been to take social workers out of the hands of councils and put them into independent trusts.
So what's been going wrong - and will the radical solution coming out of Whitehall really work? Jenny Chryss investigates.
Producer: Rob Cave.
