My Plan

My Plan is a simple process and tool that sets out the needs of the child and family and what support can be provided. My Plan can be used by a practitioner working with that child / young person / family where they have a good understanding of the underlying needs (usually informed by individual agency assessments / tools). My Plan should be undertaken holistically by the lead  practitioner with input from appropriate agencies as soon as needs emerge that require additional support and should take into consideration the wider family context that may be contributing to identified needs.

My Plan should be developed with the family and should contain SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Time bound) targets that are reviewed on a 6-weekly cycle.
