Ofsted finds child-neglect failings
Local authorities are not doing enough to protect children from neglect, according to a report by education watchdog Ofsted.
It also found that some of them have "no clear picture" of the number of children in families where neglect may be a risk factor.
Debbie Jones, the director for social care at Ofsted, said social care professionals are not challenging families who ''can't or won't change''.
