The framework has been developed to enable its widest possible adoption, integrating support for Employers with planning and provision at Local Authority or Employer level and with management, delivery and practice at establishment level.
The framework is relevant to everyone who provides planned learning for children and young people in Scotland, whether as part of early years, school, through social work services and colleges, community learning and development, outdoor learning, adventure and play organisations or the voluntary sector.
Adoption of the good practice exemplified in the framework allows Employers to fulfil their responsibilities under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 for outdoor experiences and off-site visits for all participants.
This guidance does not cover work experience.
