The reformed service will see professionals working in three aged-based teams to help children at crucial stages of their development and professionals from health, education and social care working together.
There will be an early years team, a middle years team and a transition team. The early years team, which will be responsible for children from birth to five-years-old, will work closely with the local primary care trust, which is giving the London borough premises for the team and providing a health worker.
The middle years team, for children aged between six- and 13-years-old, will work closely with the council's schools liaison worker and an educational psychologist, who will work with the team one day a week.
