How Long Does the Assessment Take?

We will aim to complete the wellbeing assessment as quickly as possible but this can take up to 42 working days where the assessment is comprehensive.

The wellbeing assessment will be reviewed every year, as long as the child is receiving care and support from Children's Services. If there are any changes in the child's situation, needs, or goals, the assessment will be reviewed at that time.

The above are our expected timescales.

Whilst we aim to keep to these timescales, there can be circumstances where these may not be met.
