National GIRFEC policy and guidance is delivered in East Lothian's Children's Services via the Child and Young Person's Planning Framework. This framework has been designed to be child centred, holistic and integrated in its approach to ensure that children and young people and their families, receive the earliest and most effective response to their needs. It is a dynamic framework where assessment is directly linked to intervention. The framework is a single shared approach to planning for children and young people across services which enables collaborative decision making and planning. Key to success are children, young people, families and agencies working together in gathering information , carrying out interventions and evaluating progress. The paperwork ensures all aspects outlined in the National practice guidance are met and compliant.
