Child Protection Plan (CPP)
Haringey Council is discussing neglect overtaking abuse as the main reason for Child Protection Plans.
Haringey Council's Children and Young People's Scrutiny Panel discussed in July 2025 a report indicating that neglect has become the primary reason for children being placed on a Child Protection Plan (CPP) in the borough. This marks a shift, as neglect has now overtaken emotional abuse as the main concern for children requiring safeguarding.
The report, which covered the fourth quarter of 2024/25 and included updates for April and May 2025, provided an overview of performance data and trends in children's social care. A Child Protection Plan is developed by social services to safeguard a child identified as being at risk of harm.
