Overview
Quick code, preferred name, age, placement status, home, key worker, placing authority, risk summary, alerts and next review date.
Young People
A young person record that starts with what staff need first.
The Young People module should help staff understand the child, support the child, evidence the work, spot patterns and update plans. Missing and Incidents sit inside that bigger picture rather than taking over the whole record.
Profile structure
Important first, detailed second.
The first view should answer: what do staff need to know right now? Deeper sections then sit behind clear grouped tiles so the record can grow without overwhelming the page.
Contacts
Family, approved contacts, restricted contacts, quick contact buttons and professional contact routes.
Professional Network
Social worker, IRO, CAMHS, school DSL, GP, YOT, advocate and other linked professionals in a clean directory.
Placement Plan
Legal status, admission date, delegated authority, placement aims, risk summary, arrangements and exit planning.
Daily Log Linked View
Recent entries linked by child hashtag, filters by date/category/staff and child-specific export foundations.
Missing Episodes
Current status, open episodes, police references, return interviews, known locations and manager oversight.
Incidents
Incident records sit inside the young person record as one event area, linked back to risk, daily logs and manager oversight.
Coming child hub areas
Fewer top-level buttons, better grouped care areas.
These areas are grouped inside Young People so the child record can grow without cluttering the main menu or pretending every detail deserves its own kingdom.

Design principle
Connected records, not separate paperwork.
Every child-specific area should be able to link back to daily logs, child hashtags, staff involved, risks, plans, documents, chronology, manager actions and audit trail.
- Snapshot information supports quick orientation without turning the landing page into an editing form.
- Grouped tiles keep the page readable as future modules are added.
- Missing and incidents are important event areas, but they sit inside the wider child record.
- Positive activity, achievements and relationships stay visible alongside risk and safeguarding.
