Our effective integration of safeguarding into school communities

Our Effective Integration of Safeguarding into School Communities

The Scottish government has recently announced their intention to build 117 new schools within the next 10 years. The predominant aim of this Future Program is to create 117 new schools that are well: managed, designed and maintained. The Scottish Government, with the help of local authorities, is working hard to make sure this program delivers effective and efficient schools. Furthermore, through the accessibility to community facilities; schools are being encouraged to develop and make use of the digital technology available to boost their efficiency. They are also encouraging parental involvement; the combination of these factors should foster a positive relationship between the wider community and schools. 

Results of The Program

Whilst starting to implement these ideals through this project, it has been evident that the link between public facilities, including: cafes, libraries and leisure, and students has had an enriching effect on the student journey and their integration within the community. The social deprivation initiated by the pandemic has meant this focus on the students wellbeing and integration into the community has been overall really beneficial towards improving general morale and mental wellbeing. This is a positive representation of the possibilities of the future school communities in Scotland if these values continue to be developed.
