Successful interagency plans

We know interagency plans are successful when:

• teams have taken the time to complete a thorough analysis and have prioritised areas to be addressed
• there is a shared understanding and purpose amongst the team
• the interagency plan takes into consideration the views of the child/young person, caregivers and practitioners
• goals are specific, measurable and achievable
• appropriate interventions have been identified
• the team is clear about how progress will be measured and monitored.
