Harm: mal ou danger ? I do not think that harm should be translated as danger. You can talk about harm having already been suffered and as being either reversible or irreversible. I think this shows a clear difference from the French word "danger". Though "harm" is, in certain collocations, correctly translated by "danger" e.g. "in harm's way".

En fait la phrase est : the children remain at risk of significant harm
Bien sûr je ne mettrai significatif qui est typiquement anglais mais que pensez-vous de les enfants courent un risque de danger (pour moi significant harm est danger et non grand danger car il peut signifier grand mal donc danger)

What is significant? I would understand there to be a reason for the report using the expression it does rather than "at high risk" or "at high risk of significant harm". Have a look at the matrix on this website:

Cette expression est utilisée pour des enfants qui se trouvent dans une famille à problèmes. C'est dans un rapport de l'aide sociale à l'Enfance
