and their family &#8211; at the centre.<\/p>\n<p>GIRFEC is not only important for everyone who works with children &#8211; it is also important for many people who work with adults who look after children.<\/p>\n<p>Practitioners need to work together to support families, and where appropriate, take early action at the first signs of any difficulty &#8211; rather than only getting involved when a situation has already reached crisis point.\u00a0 This means working across organisational boundaries; putting children and their families at the heart of decision making and giving all our children the best possible start in life.<\/p>\n<p>Click on the link below to find out more about Renfrewshire and GIRFEC.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.renfrewshire.gov.uk\/article\/3320\/Renfrewshire-and-GIRFEC\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.renfrewshire.gov.uk\/article\/3320\/Renfrewshire-and-GIRFEC<\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;color: #3366ff\"><strong>Additional Support for Learning<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/re\/public\/stannes\/uploads\/sites\/2282\/2020\/06\/19111945\/asn.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"4356\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/re\/stannes\/renfrewshire-council-policies\/asn\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/re\/public\/stannes\/uploads\/sites\/2282\/2020\/06\/19111945\/asn.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"254,199\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"asn\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/re\/public\/stannes\/uploads\/sites\/2282\/2020\/06\/19111945\/asn.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/re\/public\/stannes\/uploads\/sites\/2282\/2020\/06\/19111945\/asn.jpg\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4356\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/re\/public\/stannes\/uploads\/sites\/2282\/2020\/06\/19111945\/asn.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"231\" height=\"181\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>An additional support need is any additional need that a pupil may have, such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A disability or health issue such as autism, hearing or visual impairment;<\/li>\n<li>Family circumstances such as bereavement or homelessness;<\/li>\n<li>The learning environment, for example, having English as a second language;<\/li>\n<li>Social or emotional issues such as being bullied or being a bully.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Most children with significant additional support needs will be supported through a Pupil Support Plan (PSP).
