The EIS has produced a suite of educational packs to welcome young people from migrant and refugee families into Scottish schools.
The Welcome Packs are specific to four age ranges (Early Years, P1-P4, P5-S3, and S4-S6), and are designed to inform young people and their parents of their rights as pupils/students in Scottish education and to convey a positive, welcoming message to the young people about Scotland as their new home.
The booklets included in the packs aim to give newly arrived young people and their families some information about school education in Scotland, as well as some background about Scotland itself by way of introduction to the country.
Welcome Packs are provided free of charge to any school or nursery in Scotland that requests them.
To order Welcome Packs for your school and/or nursery, please contact the Education and Equality department at education_equalitydept@eis.org.uk
