OFSTED's annual assessment of children's services in Kent concludes that Kent is performing poorly and in so doing fails to meet minimum requirements. This is appalling. See: http://www.ofsted.gov.uk/local-authorities/kent and click on the first PDF file.
Clearly it is not uniformly bad, some areas of the service are doing well. The Cabinet member responsible for children's services resigned a few weeks ago. Hopefully the replacement will oversee signficant improvement.
