BACKGROUND INFORMATON
DEFINING A SURE START SCOTLAND SERVICE
For the purposes of this mapping exercise, a Sure Start Scotland service is one that meets all of the following criteria:
1. The service has a specifically targeted element for vulnerable children aged 0-3 and families, including where this targeting is within the context of a de-stigmatised, universal service
2. The service has been at least partly funded by Sure Start Scotland, even if different funding streams have been mixed at a corporate level, making the exact contribution from Sure Start Scotland unclear
3. The service meets one or more of the four Sure Start Scotland objectives
4. The service is 'in tune' with the overall ethos of Sure Start Scotland
The four Sure Start Scotland Objectives are to:
- Improve children's social and emotional development
- Improve children's health
- Improve children's ability to learn
- Strengthen families and communities
