Our Childrens Services Plan

Children’s Services Plans are an important way to demonstrate how a local area is improving the wellbeing of children and young people. They also help show how the progress being made towards Scotland’s National Performance Framework Objectives:

  • Our children have the best start in life and are ready to succeed
  • We have improved life chances for children, young people, and families at risk
  • Our young people are successful learners, confident individuals, effective contributors and responsible citizens

Our 3-year Plan provides information on how local services plan and deliver support to children, young people and families across Aberdeenshire; to make sure they get the right support, at the right time, by the right people.

We carried out a joint assessment of need, which help us identify local strategic priorities. This assessment was based on a range of organisational performance data, information from services, and listening to what children, young people, parents/carers, and practitioners told us was important to them.

The 5 priorities agreed for the 2020-2023 Plan are:

  • Early Years
  • Children & Young People’s Mental Health & Wellbeing
  • Children with a Disability
  • Substance Misuse
  • Corporate Parenting

Each priority is addressed by a multi-agency action plan. These include specific aims which detail how we are working in partnership to tackle this issue, and what action we are taking to make an impact on the lives of those children, young people, and families affected.
