What Influences our Priorities
National Improvement Framework & Local Authority Service Plans
The National Improvement Framework (NIF) and Improvement Plan sets out the vision and priorities for Scottish education that have been agreed across the system, and the national improvement activity that needs to be undertaken to help deliver those key priorities. This complements the ongoing implementation of Curriculum for Excellence (CfE), Getting It Right for Every Child (GIRFEC), and Developing the Young Workforce (DYW), which are the three supporting pillars of the Scottish education system.
´The local authority uses the NIF to inform a local plan which is updated annually.
How Good is our Early Learning and Childcare
´We use ‘How good is our Early Learning and Childcare’ indicators to evaluate our capacity for improvement in centre. Challenge questions support self evaluation and quality assurance.
