Hi there
The CAFCASS officer in charge of the S7 seems to have been very fair minded, hopefully she will follow this through in the preparation of the report.
Parental Alienation had a mixed reception with some judges, but it is slowly being accepted and CAFCASS have some newish iniatives for dealing with cases involving PA, such as the High Conflict Pathway and the Positve Parenting Programme. You may also find that the court may appoint a Guardian to represent the child in court.
Transferral of residency will be one of the last solutions that the court will order, they will look at other options available to them first. So whatever the outcome you will have time to adjust to that possibility...re establishing contact between you and your child will be the priority, once the reports have been provided to the court and no safeguarding issues found.
All the best
