Children who became the subject of a plan for a second or subsequent time (%) (100) Metric type

Help text
The percentage of children who became subject to a Child Protection Plan at any time during the year, who had previously been the subject of a Child Protection Plan, or on the Child Protection Register of that council, regardless of how long ago that was.

Good performance is generally low. The 2006/07 banding for this indicator describes good performance as being between 10% and 15%.

However, a very low level may mean that a local authority is not submitting some children to a Child Protection Plan who are in need. Conversely, a high level may suggest that the professionals responsible for the child's welfare are not intervening effectively to bring about the required changes. It is also expected that each child's individual circumstances will differ and therefore a zero percentage return on this indicator is not expected. This was previously reported as NI 65. Taken from Characteristics of Children in need, table D3.
