We want every child and young person to have an enjoyable, fulfilling life in a nurturing, healthy and safe environment. We will encourage children and young people to work to their potential and make a positive contribution to society.
To make this possible all young people need to have different opportunities and experiences based around the Scottish Government’s vision and aims, to ensure we “Get it right for every child” (GIRFEC).
