What is the CAF? •a process for undertaking a common assessment, to help practitioners gather and understand information about the needs and strengths of the child, based on discussions with the child, their family and other practitioners as appropriate; •a standard form and action plan to help practitioners record and where appropriate, share with others, the findings from the assessment in terms that are helpful in working with the family to find a response to unmet needs. The CAF provides an easy to use assessment that is common across agencies. It will help embed a shared language; support better understanding and communications amongst practitioners; facilitate early intervention; speed up service delivery and reduce the number and duration of different assessments that historically some children and young people have undergone.
