Raising Attainment For All

Building on the work of EYC to achieve improved outcomes in

education attainment

“Scotland should be the best place to go to

school. We want each child to enjoy an

education that encourages them to be the

most successful they can be and provides

them with a full passport to future

opportunity”

Our Shared AmbitionTo raise attainment: consistently over an agreed period, promoting greater depth and breadth of attainment and achievement and improving the educational outcomes of all our children and young people

To progressively reduce inequity in educational outcomes: consistently over an agreed period, to make progress in eroding the deeply embedded correlation found in the majority of Scottish schools between a child’s relative point of social deprivation/affluence and their educational attainment.

To improve the public and parents’ confidence in continuous improvement of Scotland’s education system.
