NEW FINDINGS PUBLISHED ON 10 MAY 2012

Aileen Campbell, Minister for Children and Young People said:

“The Scottish Government wants our country to be the best place for children to grow up and studies such as Growing up in Scotland (GUS) provide uniquely Scottish information to help realise that vision.

“The findings help our understanding of what makes the best start in life, how to achieve that for our children and how to measure the progress already made.

“This government is committed to supporting children and families and recognises that getting it right in the early years is essential. These findings will be hugely helpful to us as well as our partners working across the early years in Scotland.’’
