London Thresholds Guidance

The London Thresholds Guide provides a framework for professionals who are working with children, young people and families.

It aims to help identify when a child may need additional support to achieve their full potential. It introduces a continuum of help and support, provides information on the levels of need and gives examples of some of the factors that may indicate a child or young person needs additional support. By undertaking assessments and offering services on a continuum of help and support, professionals can be flexible and respond to different levels of need in different children and families.The framework recognises that however complex a child's needs, universal services e.g. education and health, will always be provided alongside any specialist additional service.
