Early Help

The Early Help Assessment is a way of working with children and young people. It involves listening to you and your child to find out your child's needs, and what is working well in your child's life. An action plan, agreed with you and your child, is also put in place to make sure your child gets the right sort of help. The Early Help Assessment is voluntary – you and your child can choose to be involved.  For more information about how Crosby School can come together with other agencies to support you, please see the above leaflet and ask in school.
