Parents/carers and young people - do you need support?

The Graduated Pathway of Early Help and Targeted Support is our early help assessment and planning process, which applies to the whole range of needs including:

  • learning and development;
  • social, emotional, health (physical and mental) and / or disability; and
  • wider family and environment.


Visit the Graduated Pathway practice guidance for more information and guidance


If you need help with the Graduated Pathway (for example, implementing a My Plan, My Assessment and My Plan +; coordinating TAF, or you simply need to understand the role of the lead practitioner), please contact early help via the Gloucestershire children's helpdesk:
