Adoption Support Plan (ASP) England: Briefing session for IROs
CoramBAAF is excited to publish the new Adoption Support Plan (ASP) England. The Adoption Support Plan and accompanying guidance for social workers, IROs and adopters has been developed by CoramBAAF building on work completed by Adoption England and feedback gained through a pilot of the form by 5 RAAs during 2024 and consultations with Adoption UK and relevant CoramBAAF forums.
The form is compliant with relevant law, regulations and statutory guidance. It is designed to be used at key stages of the adoption process - during matching; when reviewing the placement prior to the adoption order being made and as a basis for future adoption assessments post order. It should be used alongside the Adoption Placement Report (APR) England 2025 which has been amended for this purpose.
