- Deliver targeted intervention to families and professionals, as part of a multi- disciplinary team, at points of change, challenge and transition, to support longer term resilience and the dialogue essential to the success of CYP educational placements and outcomes.

- Plan, deliver and evaluate a range of partnership and person-centred practice and its application, development opportunities for staff in educational settings, enabling educators to embed this approach within engagement with families.
