Description

AWARD of the Flexible Purchasing Framework
The City of Edinburgh Council has created a Flexible Purchasing Framework of providers in line with the National Improvement Framework for Education.  The vision for education in Edinburgh is to ensure excellence by raising attainment and improving outcomes through Accredited Pathways and Certified Counsellors and Therapists: ensuring that every child and young person achieves the highest standards in literacy and numeracy, as well as the knowledge and skills necessary to shape their future as successful learners, confident individuals, responsible citizens, and effective contributors.
The City of Edinburgh Council will realise this vision by achieving equity: ensuring every child and young person has the same opportunity to succeed, regardless of their background, social circumstances, additional needs or shared protected characteristics, with a particular focus on closing the poverty related attainment gap, and improving mental health and wellbeing.
In order to achieve this, The City of Edinburgh Council will work to reduce the Poverty Related Attainment Gap (PRAG) through a transdisciplinary approach.  Delivery of excellence will be achieved via the Edinburgh Imperative, which has four key themes to support reduction of the PRAG: Attendance, Literacy & Numeracy, Pathways, Health and Wellbeing.
Collaboration and relationship building with partner providers is a key theme to support young people’s outcomes being at the heart of everything we do.  Partner Providers will support schools to provide a service which ensures pupils receive high quality education which meets their needs, delivers improved educational outcomes and avoids exclusion.
The City of Edinburgh Council are encouraging a ‘Place Based’ approach to services and supports to families and young people.  The intention is to develop comprehensive supports that are within 20minutes of any identified need.
