November 1, 2017 Research and Evidence Children’s Social Care Innovation Programme Final Evaluation Report Evaluation ReportsBy Professor Judy Sebba, Dr Nikki Luke, Di McNeish, Dr Alun Rees This report provides an overview of the evaluation of Wave 1 of the Department for Education’s (DfE) Children’s Social Care Innovation Programme which took place 2014-2016 in England. The Innovation Programme was set up to address the concerns raised by the Munro review, Association of Directors of Children’s Services report and Local Government Association (LGA) report. These sources suggested that the regulatory framework and local structures focused too much on risk avoidance and compliance and insufficiently on national and international evidence of effective practice, and new approaches to achieve significant and sustainable improvement.
