"Sharon Shoesmith, the ex-head of children's services at Haringey Council, won a case for unfair dismissal."

"She claimed she had been unfairly dismissed and the Court of Appeal ruled in her favour in 2011, saying she had been "unfairly scapegoated".

"Haringey Council previously revealed it had spent £196,000 fighting Ms Shoesmith's case for unfair dismissal."

"The compensation package is more than the minimum suggested by senior judge Lord Neuberger in the 2011 ruling."

"He gave the opinion Ms Shoesmith was entitled to a minimum of three months' salary plus pensions contributions, which would have amounted to about £33,000."
