Data summary
How do we respond to this challenge?
Lets not talk about GIRFEC, but about getting it right for every child……..
‘Scotland is neither the sick man of Europe nor is it the most deprived. There are
actions we can take to “Get it Right For Every Child” (and adult) and it is incumbent on all public services to work together to this end. We can make a difference – indeed it is already happening. But there is much more
to do....’
Sir Harry Burns
Early Intervention – at all transition (progression) stages...
Work with familiesMeasure impact (0-3)
Early Years collaborative Nurture Programmes
Leadership decisions – e.g. who teaches in
P1 & P4?
Multi agency partnership working. Schools/nurseries cannot do it alone

Looked after children….700 in North Lanarkshire.
Looked after children: examination performance
Looked after at home

5+ level 6 = 0%
Looked after away from home
5+ level 4 = 11.76%
5+ level 5 = 2.94%

A child who is looked after will, on average, be excluded 10 times more than a child who is not looked after….

If there was no more to human intelligence than academic ability most of human culture would not have happened. There would be no practical science or technology; no business, no arts, no drama, dance, architecture, design, cuisine, aesthetics, feelings, relationships, emotions or love......

‘A hundred years from now it will not matter what kind of car you drove, what kind of house you lived in, how much you had in your bank
account, or what your clothes looked like.
But the world may be a little better because you were important in the life of a young person (or
adult).’
