The purpose of this resource is to provide a foundational knowledge on the background and current delivery approaches of family learning in Scotland and how they align with #KeepingThePromise. It has been designed in collaboration with Education Scotland, The Promise Scotland and Dumfries and Galloway’s Children’s Services Partners locally. The resource will support both family learning professionals and GIRFEC Strategic Leaders who have responsibility for the delivery and governance of both areas.

Raising awareness of the importance of The Promise with family learning professionals is necessary to improve outcomes for children and families. Similarly, GIRFEC strategic leaders will benefit from an understanding of how family learning as an approach can be utilised to #KeepThePromise. This will help to ensure that we all work towards delivering upon Scotland’s commitment to #KeepThePromise to all children, young people and their families, and the priorities within Scotland’s vision for family learning.
