Step Up/Step Down Process
A series of process diagrams have been created to show different types and levels of intervention and how a Step Up/Step Down process aims to address the ongoing needs of families, taking into account the issues raised. The processes outline work across the partnership of specialist, targeted and universal support (continuum of needs) and aim to enable a deliverable and effective transition for families, ensuring children are protected and families supported by a range of practitioners working together.
