Stands for
AP — The YJB's structured assessment framework for young people in the youth justice system.
How it works in KallosSim
- In practice language — The YJB's structured assessment framework for young people in the youth justice system.
- What it means — Asset Plus is the YJB's current assessment and planning framework for children and young people involved in the youth justice system. It is modular and holistic, covering three stages: (1) Information Gathering — personal, family, and social factors, including a self-assessment completed with the young person; (2) Explanations and Conclusions — professional judgements on Likelihood of Re-offending, Safety and Well-being, and Risk of Serious Harm to others; (3) Pathways and Planning — structured around five outcomes (goals, not offending, not hurting others, keeping safe, desistance factors). Asset Plus is explicitly trauma-informed and aligns with the Child First framework, requiring practitioners to identify strengths and protective factors alongside risks.
- In KallosSim — Cases and formative debriefs may reference this concept when your sector pack and card selections call for it.
Training only. Fictional AI-generated cases only — not legal advice, not live decision support, not a substitute for supervision.
What it is not
- A substitute for reading primary statute or your organisation’s procedures.
- Competence assessment, ASYE sign-off, or Bar / SRA / CIPD accreditation.
- Advice for a live family, employee, client, or court matter.
