01 · The young person record

## One live profile per young person. The spine of everything.

Not a folder of documents. A structured, connected picture that holds the thread: this log evidences that goal, in that plan, written because of that incident, which triggered that concern.

◉

### One live profile per young person

Daily events, journals, incidents, safeguarding concerns, care plans, behaviour plans, keywork conversations, contact, health, education and tasks all connect to a single record.

▤

### The timeline

The chronological spine. Everything recorded about a young person, in order, from placement start onward. Scroll back through a year and see how a young person actually got here.

◔

### The overview: a shift briefing

Opens with what you need before you walk into the room: important health information, the current risks and the agreed approach, what's scheduled today, and what's just happened.

▦

### Areas, not tabs

Overview, timeline, plans, care/health/education, safeguarding, daily life. Each area's records are one click away without burying the record itself.

◈

### A record that accumulates

A young person three months into a placement has a materially richer record than on day one: attendance patterns, what settles them, who they ask for, what has worked and what has not.

◇

### A record that leaves with them

Retention is set to a statutory basis per record type. Nothing is hard-deleted, and a subject access request compiles every record held into one audited export bundle.

02 · Explore in detail

## Three places the record does the heavy lifting.

Daily work, when something goes wrong, and what the record makes possible at review and inspection.

[### Daily recording & handover

Structured logs, self-compiling journals, keywork, contact and shift handovers. Written once, in the moment.

03 · Planning for the young person

## Plans the daily record actually evidences.

Goals link to the logs that evidence them, so progress is visible from real activity rather than asserted at review time.

◉

### Plans

Care, placement, pathway, health care, education (PEP), positive behaviour support, and risk. Goals link to the daily logs that evidence them.

☑

### Read-and-confirm

Every staff member confirms they have read each published plan version. A new version reopens the confirmation, and someone joining later is still asked.

◈

### Risk assessments

Linked to plans, with agreed decisions and per-staff acknowledgement. You know who has actually read the risks, not who was emailed them.

✚

### Health care plan

Allergies, conditions, registrations, immunisations, and statutory IHA and RHA dates. Allergies surface prominently where they cannot be missed.

▤

### Education support plan (PEP)

School placement, attendance, SEN status, exclusions, designated teacher and Virtual School links. Weekend and holiday logs are marked so a run of "no school" does not read as missed education.

◔

### Statutory care planning

Local-authority-held plans and LAC and IRO review timescales, with due and overdue surfacing.

04 · The team around the young person

## Safer recruitment, held to the same standard.

The people around the young person are recorded as rigorously as the young person's own record, and kept firmly separate from it.

◉

### Staff profiles

The full Schedule 2 record: identity, employment history with gaps explained, references, right to work, DBS with Update Service tracking, and declarations.

▤

### Onboarding wizard

Safer-recruitment evidence must be on file before that person can work in the system, and outstanding items are listed plainly.

▦

### Training & competency matrix

Mandatory training with renewal dates, and a staff-by-competency grid showing gaps at a glance.

◇

### Supervisions & appraisals

Kept firmly separate from young-person records, behind the HR access scope.

◈

### Role-based access

Staff, senior, manager, safeguarding lead, HR and company admin each get a surface built for their job. Safeguarding and HR never appear on operational screens.

▢

### Multi-home

One company, many homes, with per-home membership and roles.

05 · AI that drafts, never decides

## A draft for a person to check. Never the record itself.

Ask for a summary of a journal day or an incident and get an advisory draft in seconds. Identifying details are stripped before anything reaches the model, inference runs UK-only, and every call is audited.

In a market where "AI" usually means "we sent your young people's data somewhere," that distinction is the point.

De-identified · UK-only inference · audited
