The Continuum of Need, incorporating Threshold Guidance (previously referred to as the Safeguarding Children’s Threshold) is a means of providing needs-led appropriate access to services in compliance with statutory duties.
The Continuum of Need Windscreen (click on the image above to enlarge it) demonstrates the levels of need children, young people and their families can move between when considering the type of support needed.
To see the Continuum and all associated documents, please see the Buckinghamshire Safeguarding Children Partnership website.
