Early Help means providing help for children, young people and families as soon as challenges start to emerge or where it is likely that issues will impact significantly on children’s outcomes. At Mayflower Primary School, we strongly believe that Early Help can provide children with the best opportunity to thrive and flourish, and that by working in partnership with our parents and local community is the best way of achieving this.
Early Help:
is for children of all ages and not just the very young
can be very effective in supporting a child, young person and/or their family to step down from statutory services as well as preventing the escalation of issues
is important because there is clear evidence that it results in better outcomes for children
Leicester City Council recognises that Early Help is a term that describes much of the everyday work of schools.
