GIRFEC – Getting It Right For Every Child
What does the national ‘Getting it right for every child’ approach to children’s health and wellbeing mean to you?
‘Getting it right for every child’ (GIRFEC) is the national policy for improving the lives, health and wellbeing of all children and young people and for ensuring that services such as education and health work together, focussing on the needs of children and young people. The wellbeing of children and young people is at the heart of GIRFEC which asks whether children are safe, healthy, achieving, nurtured, active, respected, responsible and included.
We have been asked to help in gathering parent views on their current understanding of GIRFEC and would be very grateful if you could take a couple of minutes to complete this short questionnaire.This survey is anonymous. Individuals and individual responses will not be identified in the reporting of these findings
If you want to find more about what GIRFEC means for you or your child, you should ask your health visitor, school or other professional who you have contact with.
You will find the survey at:
West Lothian Council’s Attendance Policy
An AIMS team (Attendance Improvement Management Service) has been created within West Lothian’s Children & Young People Team (CYPT) which will raise the profile and priority of attendance issues with a focus on early intervention, transition, individual and group work approaches. The AIMS team work in partnership with schools and families to support West Lothian Council’s Attendance Policy. The AIMS information leaflet for parents/carers has been posted on the blog for you to have a look at and hard copies are available in school. West Lothian Council’s Attendance Policy provides a system that intervenes at an early stage and letters are sent to parents/carers when their child’s attendance falls below 90%. This system keeps parents/carers informed about their child’s attendance as absences can mount up easily and this has an impact on their overall attendance percentages.
