Partnership model

What a partnership can include.

01

Structured observation

A clearer framework for noticing and documenting developmental indicators.

02

Practical support

Individual strategies that can be used consistently within everyday early-years routines.

03

Parent communication

Clearer language and records to support sensitive, constructive conversations with families.

04

Continuity

Progress notes that can support later conversations with relevant professionals, where consent allows.

Why it matters for settings.

  • Helps staff respond more consistently while specialist support is pending.
  • Supports retention by giving families a clearer plan rather than leaving concerns unaddressed.
  • Creates more structured documentation for later referrals and assessments.
  • Provides a clear point of contact for parents navigating the waiting period.
