P7 – Young Scot Cards Delay

Due to the Coronavirus crisis the department responsible for preparing Young Scot Cards for P7 pupils were unable to process applications as they normally would.  The normal timescales and processes were completely disrupted as you might imagine.  

The last communication received has indicated they aim to have cards produced for pupils returning to school in August, and the likely scenario will be that they will arrange for cards to be sent to  high schools prior to the start of the new term. This is a change to normal systems where we would issue these to pupils in June.

In the meantime P7 pupils may like to familiarise themselves with  excellent resources at www.young.scot including local pages at https://young.scot/north-lanarkshire.   Young people aged 12+ can sign up for young scot membership and access additional opportunities, rewards and discounts on the web page. Social media pages also contain lots of great information about events, opportunities and youth issues, so please follow @NLCYouthwork and encourage pupils to do the same.

We will update you further should anything change before August.

Thanks for your patience.
