Work with peers as part of a group that reflect a simulated Multi-Agency Team to develop an evidence-based proposed care plan which clearly shows your individual and specific contributions towards the group project (1500 words). You must:
Provide evidence of your group and individual research and knowledge, which demonstrates an appreciation of the service-user needs when putting together a relevant care package and planning intended outcomes for the service user.
Produce a reflective account of 1000 words using a model of self-reflection, which demonstrates your knowledge and understanding of multi-agency working gained from your experience and research.

How do I produce high quality work that merits a good grade?
Attending all lectures and seminars/workshops will help as each week is formative and relevant to gaining the knowledge and understanding needed for the assignment.
Active participation in group tasks including case study presentation will facilitate the opportunity for you to use the knowledge and experience from this in your assignment
Begin working with your group as early as possible after being assigned a case study as you will begin to share knowledge and get an understanding of the experience of group formation and working together
Start researching your role as soon as possible to get an understanding of legislation and role responsibility
Make use of the student study hub as soon as possible, especially if you are not yet confident about academic writing or you need additional study support.
Pay attention to the structure of your assignment. Pay careful attention to the assignment brief. Your assignment should have introduction, discussion, and a conclusion and you should have a care plan or action plan that you and your group have developed as a result of working together on your case.
Follow the guidelines on BREO regarding Harvard referencing both in your text and construction of your reference list to minimize risk of plagiarism as this does impact on grades awarded
Make use of documents and tools made available to you on BREO.

Lectures will cover main topics of Multi-Agency Working and seminars/workshops will be follow on sessions that are linked to lectures where you will do group activities
Seminars will provide opportunities to explore and work with small case studies to help you to develop skills and identify your own continuing knowledge development needs
You will do activities that enhance your learning around different types of multi-professional/multi-agency meetings in adult and child welfare
You will research your role individually and get together with your other group members to develop a proposed care plan or action plan
You and your group will present your care plan/action plan in workshops (this will include talking about the decisions your group made about identifying the key issues in your case study, the type of multi-agency meeting your group opted for and why, legislation , theory, how you ensured service user inclusion, and your final care plan).
