CIRCLE <\/strong><\/p>\n

The CIRCLE resources were developed through a collaboration between Queen Margaret University, NHS Lothian and City of Edinburgh Council.<\/p>\n

The information in these resources represent the reflective practice of hundreds of teachers as well as feedback from learners and parents\/carers. It also reflects relevant research and policy guidance.<\/p>\n

Overall, the resource aims to empower education staff to support all pupils, to promote inclusive practice and to encourage effective collaboration between school staff, parents\/carers, partner services and other agencies.<\/p>\n
