Anne Longfield, yesterday responded to the ruling by the Court of Appeal on removing safeguards for children in care
She yesterday said:
“I am delighted that the Court of Appeal has recognised the vital importance of the voice of the child in care in decisions taken that affect them – including, and I would argue especially, during a pandemic.
“We will now be seeking reassurances from the Department for Education about how this won’t be repeated in the future.”
