  • Exhibiting risky behaviours that jeopardise personal safety

  • At the risk of going on to part-time school timetables or at risk of exclusion

  • Home educated where early help can have a positive impact

  • Have moderate learning difficulties (without an Education and Health Care Plan)

Referrals may also be made for a parent or carer.
