    All of this wouldn’t have happened if it wasn’t for Alison Taylor, a manager of a care home in Gwynedd, listened to children who had transferred from other care homes and she believed them and took it up with her manager. Then after a long wait but no evidence of anything happening she took matters to the police but to no prevail as there were no prosecutions which was greeted by ‘inappropriate enthusiasm’ by social services.…

    There have been many incidents in the last few years which have raised concerns with the public about the early years and child care sector, such as those child protection issues listed above. Due to the nature of the sector, ie working with and to protect young children, any causes for concern become very high priority and gain lots of interest in the media, especially for high profile cases such as Baby P and Victoria Climbie. The public interest in these and other child protection issues such as the use of mobile phones, permeates the public consciousness and quite rightly becomes deeply embedded in government initiatives to be amended, for example, the Reviewed EYFS now stipulates that every setting has to have a policy regarding use of mobile…

    In the official report it said that there was around 60 visits to the Connelly's house in the space of only 8 months, from the social workers, police and others and yet nobody noticed the dirty clothes and the disgusting, filthy habitat the boy had to live in, and worse nobody noticed the bruises, cuts and other signs of abuse. Considering Mr Connelly has been arrested before for abuse of the boy and when she got out of jail she got her son back. Isn't that a little stupid? People can change but she had all the visits from the social workers to make sure that she wasn’t making the same mistakes again. So how could they miss the fact the boy was being abused once again. Did they not see the pain and fear in him, the home of Mrs Connelly was described to be dirty, messy and smelly. Did the social workers miss this or did they just not care? You should only have a baby if you know you can give it all it needs; a clean home is one of the most important things. The 17 months old baby had over 50 different injuries all over his body, how is it possible that none of the people who visited 60 times noticed? Their neighbours they must have heard crying or screaming, how could you live with yourself if you knew there was a baby in pain next door and you did nothing about it. However, someone must have cared because they did have a couple police visits, and did the police not see the…
