Are attendance centres available only for young people assessed as requiring a standard intervention level?
All young people can be referred to an attendance centre regardless of their intervention level under the Scaled Approach. Appropriate referrals of a young person to a local attendance centre needs to be based on the assessment of that individual young person and your protocols and arrangement with your local attendance centre. Currently many young people are referred to attendance centres, e.g. on Supervision Orders, Referral Orders, Final Warnings and ISSP. We encourage YOTs to make more use of attendance centres now and in the future.
