Secondary Inclusion Resource (SIR)

Secondary Inclusion Resource

The vision for SIR is to develop a greater sense of inclusion, wellbeing, improve attendance and attainment and prepare young people for post school transition. As a result of this vision and work by our young people and staff young people attending SIR have an average attendance of 95.8% and regularly achieve at least 5 National qualifications in the senior phase. In many instances young people achieve 7/8  National qualifications in one academic year. SIR presently has a 99% record of young people in a positive destination post school.

SIR staff and young people work closely with partner agencies e.g. Drug and Alcohol intervention services, YPST, Social Work, Police Scotland, Children’s panel service and community outreach programmes which enhance young peoples learning experiences.

When accessing SIR, an SIR profile and action plan will be created with a view to increasing attainment, attendance and preparing young people for a transition back to mainstream class or post school provision.
