142 SCOPE OF THIS CHAPTER
143 </p>
144 <p>
144 This chapter applies to disruptions of adoptive placements, which occur prior to an Adoption
Order having been made. Where a disruption takes place after an Adoption Order has been
made, a Disruption Meeting may be held as part of the adoption support provided to the child
and adoptive family in which case the same principles as set out in this chapter may be
followed.
144 </p>
145 </div>
152 <div class="section">
154 <ol>
155 <li>
155 Where an agency adoptive placement breaks down prior to the granting of an Adoption Order,
a Disruption Meeting must be held to identify the reasons for the breakdown and to learn
lessons from the events surrounding the breakdown;
155 <br>
156 <br>
157 The Disruption Meeting will be held no sooner than 28 days after and no later than 42 days
after the placement breaking down, and will follow a set agenda;
157 <br>
158 <br>
159 The Adoption Service will arrange for the meeting to be chaired independently by an
experienced practitioner or manager from outside the adoption service not involved in the
line management of the case responsible social worker;
159 <br>
160 <br>
161 </li>
162 <li>
162 The Disruption Meeting will be convened by the child's social worker, who will invite the
prospective adoptive parents, their social worker, the current carers, the child's
Independent Reviewing Officer and any other relevant people. The child's social worker
will also ensure that the child's views and feelings are given to the meeting in the most
appropriate way;
162 <br>
163 <br>
164 </li>
165 <li>
165 The child's social worker and the prospective adopters' social worker should attend the
Adoption Panel to present a report from the Disruption Meeting. When this is considered,
the Panel should also receive copies of the Panel minutes recommending the adoption plan
for the child, the prospective adopters' approval and the placement with the particular
prospective adopters, to enable learning points to be shared;
165 <br>
166 <br>
167 The child's social worker should contact the Panel Administrator to book a date for the
Adoption Panel to consider the matter and the relevant documents should be sent to the
Panel Administrator 10 working days before the Panel meeting;
167 <br>
168 <br>
169 </li>
170 <li>
170 Where an Adoption Placement Plan is terminated before the adoptive placement takes place
(i.e. during introductions), the adoption social worker for an in-house approved family,
or the child's social worker in the case of an inter agency placement, will prepare a
report for the Adoption Panel. The report must outline the reasons for the breakdown;
170 <br>
171 <br>
172 </li>
173 <li>
173 In all such cases, the Adoption Panel may consider whether the plan for the child should
be reviewed and/or whether the prospective adopters' approval should be reconsidered, and
these issues may need to be further investigated and reports be presented to a subsequent
meeting.
