Secure care: pathway and standards
The pathway and standards set out what all children in or on the edges of secure care in Scotland should expect across the continuum of intensive supports and services. They provide a framework for ensuring the rights of children and young people are respected and improve experiences and outcomes.
Who are these standards for?
- Children, their parents/carers, families and advocates to understand what their rights are and what they should expect from corporate parents and professionals when being intensively supported in the community or a secure care setting
- All corporate parents to inform strategic decisions on resource priorities, service design, commissioning, joint working arrangements, self-evaluation and individual support to children and their families
- Secure care services in their strategic and operational development, and self-evaluation
- Regulators and inspectorates as part of their future scrutiny and improvement plans.
