Duration between start of section 47 enquiries and initial child protection conference: 25th percentile (days) (8917) Metric type

This is the number of days duration between the start of section 47 enquiries and initial child protection conference (ICPC) that the 25th percentile took. It indicates that, at the lowest end of the scale, the duration of a quarter of processes took this amount of time or less. This metric provides an indication of how quickly the safety of children who are judged to be continuing to, or likely to, suffer significant harm is being considered by a multi agency meeting.

This is the actual number of initial child protection conferences carried out 21 working days or more from the start of section 47 enquiry. Durations calculated for 2012/13 are different to those published previously as they are based upon the actual section 47 start date and the date of the initial child protection conference. In previous publications the duration shown was the time taken between the day the timescale for completing the section 47 enquiries began (which was not necessarily the day the section 47 enquiries started) to the day of the initial child protection conference. This measure excludes cases where the recorded initial child protection conference date is before section 47 date, however these will be included in overall number of ICPCs. If a child was the subject of section 47 enquiries on more than one occasion during the year, each occasion is recorded separately. Taken from Characteristics of Children in need, table C4.
