Getting it right for every child by improving outcomes

Skip to interactive wheel

IntroductionThis interactive resource, based on the wellbeing indicators, will

help practitioners reflect on what makes a positive difference for

children and young people and how this might be developed

and improved within their setting.

Supporting documentation also available on our website:

1. A guide to evaluating wellbeing in schools and nurseriesThe main guide to this resource

2. Using the GIRFEC interactive wheelA short guide on how to use the interactive wheel part of this slideshow

3. Word document for recording the outcomes of your meetings

IntroductionThe reflection process has four stages:

Stage 1• What are the wellbeing indicators and what do they mean for us?

Stage 2• What are we currently doing?

Stage 3• How well is this working? How do we know?

Stage 4• What further improvements will we make? How good can we be?

The Getting it right for every child approach“Taking care of the well-being of our children and young people and making sure they are alright, helps us ensure the most positive outcomes for them later in life. It gives them the potential to grow up ready to succeed and play their part in society.

The benefits are significant both for the individual and for our society as a whole.”

What do we mean by culture, systems and practice?

What do we mean by culture, systems and practice?

Culture consists of the prevailing values both within a service

and among individuals working within this service.

Systems underpin the key tasks of an organisation.

They are the way in which structures, policies, procedures, and

protocols, IT systems, and business processes support

stakeholders and strategic managers to plan, guide and co-

ordinate help for children and families.

Practice is the repertoire each service has of working with

children and families and with other agencies and practitioners.
