Attachment – what we do to support children and young people
South Lanarkshire Council Education Resources is committed to improving outcomes for children and young people by creating emotionally supportive learning experiences in our nurseries and schools.
The Education Resources Attachment Strategy was launched in March 2019 as a key action in South Lanarkshire’s Children Services Plan 2017-20 – ‘Develop an attachment strategy and to inform training for staff working with early years to secondary aged children and young people on attachment-informed practice’.
What does it set out to do?
The aim of the strategy is to promote better experiences of attachment for South Lanarkshire’s children and young people and to ensure that all education practitioners understand the importance of attachment theory and its application and how positive relationships can make a difference to outcomes.
How can I find out more?
South Lanarkshire Council Education Resources have published a series of leaflets and posters for establishments and for parents/carers which aim to share information on attachment theory and on how this informs the ways in which we support children and young people.
