The Met has now made 14 voluntary referrals to the police watchdog about strip-searching children.
Of 11 of the remaining cases, nine were carried out without an "appropriate adult" present - though in some cases the child had said they did not want one.
So far, six of the referrals have been returned for the Met's Directorate of Professional Standards to investigate. The Met said: "What happened to Child Q was a truly regrettable incident and we have apologised publicly to her, her family and the wider community. We understand how much concern this incident has caused, and how distressed Child Q has been.
"We have been listening to the views of our communities and partners, and have already made changes as we balance the policing need for this type of search with the considerable impact it can have on young people. "We have also given officers advice around dealing with schools, ensuring that children are treated as children".
