Scottish Attainment Challenge

The Scottish Attainment Challenge is a government initiative aimed at improving educational outcomes for disadvantaged children in Scotland. Launched in 2015, it focuses on raising attainment levels in schools, particularly in areas of high poverty. The program provides funding and support to schools and local authorities to implement targeted interventions, such as additional teaching resources and support services. The goal is to ensure all children, regardless of their background, have equal opportunities to succeed in their education, ultimately enhancing social equity and personal development across the country.
