I asked one of the regular staff and he checked their internal EPOS system which says it is "discontinued" but he says it may just appear at some point. I note HMV.com's listing (https://store.hmv.com/film-tv/blu-ray/the-children-act) has now been removed so I am guessing if EOne/Fox did print this up, the stock is stuck pending what is happening to it nd may be stuck for a while if KPMG have any liability over it or they perhaps pulled it from being released on blu-ray totally before any copies were made for distrinbution so this may be only released on DVD here in the UK, the DVD is out at any retailer btw.
A similar thing happened with The Little Stranger, another former HMV Exclusive which showed up to me today from Amazon. My guess is that both Blu-rays were fully manufactured, and now, the slipcovers have to be removed (and possibly the artwork re-printed) to reflect that they are no longer HMV Exclusives, something which was probably printed and/or stickered onto the slipcovers and/or jackets initially.
