How will the Common Assessment Framework (CAF) help my family?
The CAF exists to help you support your child. It can lead to a quick solution or help to identify extra support if needed. The CAF will ensure that everyone involved with your child – such as teachers and health visitors – works together to support your child. The CAF will help your child receive the right support at an early stage before their needs increase. As the CAF is a shared assessment, you and your child will not have to repeat the same story to different workers. For more information about the Common Assessment, please contact: CAF Team – Shirley Guffick/Ellie McFadyen on 01642 771500.
