Numeracy in the Outdoor Learning Environment
This project is carefully aligned to Curriculum for Excellence and the Scottish Attainment Challenge. During the project, children are engaging in experiences which are designed to give opportunities for every individual to develop the attitudes, skills and knowledge to be successful learners; confident individuals; responsible citizens and effective contributors.
The project design is centred on exploring community and collaboration, building relationships and developing metacognition and self-regulation strategies. Opportunities to develop and apply aspects of literacy, health and well-being and, in particular, numeracy will be built into the sequence of linked learning experiences.

Skills For Learning - Skills For Life - Skills For Work
The toolkit provides an accessible summary of global educational research on the impact of interventions for 5 - 16 year olds. This is part of the support to education practitioners in Scotland and is designed to inform intervention and investment decision making to tackle inequity and to close the poverty-related attainment gap.

Gartocharn Skills Framework
Gartocharn PS have been developing their Skills Framework.
It is our aim to ensure that all pupils are able to properly articulate the skills for learning, life and work that they have developed not only in the curriculum, but also from their wider achievements. The Gartocharn Skills Framework has been designed with our pupils at the centre and will provide the foundations for our pupils to understand what skills are, ways they can develop them, and most importantly how to articulate those skills to gain entry to a positive destination. |
“The development of skills is essential to learning and education to help young people to become successful learners, confident individuals, responsible citizens and effective contributors. All children and young people are entitled to opportunities for developing skills for learning, life and work.” Building the Curriculum 4 |
