Young People

A clear child profile that starts with what staff need first.

The Young People dashboard is designed so the front page is not overloaded. Staff see the most important snapshot first, then click into section tiles for deeper information.

Young People profile overview with child snapshot, recent log entries and section tiles
Profile structure

A child profile dashboard with depth behind each tile.

The profile should help staff orient quickly, then move into the right area without scrolling through everything at once.

Basic snapshot

Key visible details first: child reference, quick code, status, age, date of birth, local authority and key workers.

Identity

Core identity, reference and personal details kept in a dedicated section.

Description centre

Description information that can support day-to-day awareness and missing-from-care workflows.

Placement

Current placement, legal status and move information connected to the home context.

Contacts

Family, important people and professional contacts held in structured areas.

Communication

Communication needs, preferences and relevant profile information available through a focused section.

Health & Wellbeing

Health summaries, contacts and wellbeing information shaped as the module develops.

Education

School, PEP and education status foundations for future education workflows.

Risk & Safety

Current risk grading, safety summary and relevant risk information surfaced for staff and managers.

Activity

Profile activity and linked updates that help people understand what has changed.

Daily Logs

Recent linked entries and hashtag matches are connected back to the child profile.

Missing links and Documents

Missing profile links and documents sit close to the profile without crowding the summary page.

Design principle

Important first, detailed second.

The profile is not trying to place every fact on one page. It gives staff the key snapshot, recent linked activity and clear routes into deeper sections.

  • Snapshot information supports quick orientation.
  • Section tiles keep the page readable.
  • Recent logs connect day-to-day recording with the young person record.
  • Missing links prepare the profile for live episode workflows.
