Website updated with resources for improving children’s outcomes

An online bank of resources for anyone in Scotland interested in improving outcomes for children and young people with care experience has been updated and is now live.

The We Can and Must Do Better website offers training materials which can be combined to create tailored courses of varying length to suit different audiences, and includes presentations, videos, trainer notes, and links to relevant websites and online tools.

Those who could benefit from using the site would include residential workers, foster carers, kinship carers, teachers, and social workers. However, professionals from across the child care sector and anyone working with vulnerable children and families could also gain valuable knowledge from customisable courses that suit their needs.

Training units include

  • Corporate parenting
  • Residential and secure care
  • Disability
  • Attachment, trauma and resilience

Users of the site previously required a login to access all the materials, but it’s now open for anyone to browse. All the available materials have been updated to take into account current research and Scottish Government policy.
