The Scottish region falls under a different Government from the rest of the MSA and there are therefore issues that are only relevant to members north of the border.
The most recent policy to affect our sector was the Curriculum for Excellence with the most recent Scottish Government document launched in December 2008 with the publication of the Early Years Framework. This publication, along with Achieving Our Potential: A Framework to tackle poverty and income inequality in Scotland (launched at the end of November), will play a key role in developing out of school care in Scotland over the coming months and years.
