Personal support in schools

Sharing practice

Case studies of interesting practice are often an excellent way to find out more about a topic and to gather ideas on what may work in your school or early years setting.

These case studies describe some of the successful practice taking place in planning, integrating and developing personal support in local authorities and in schools throughout Scotland.

You may find it helpful to use these case studies in conjunction with 10 Standards from 'Happy, Safe and Achieving their Potential'. They may support you in identifying and evaluating relevant existing practice and finding areas for development within your authority, school or early years centre.
