The Scottish Government is seeking a supplier to provide a demand led service for both Advocacy Support and Legal Advice service to children, aged 12-15.
The Education (Additional Support for Learning) (Scotland) Act 2004 (2004 Act) provides the legal framework for the provision of additional support for learning. The Education (Scotland) Act 2016 (2016 Act) amends the 2004 Act to provide that children (aged between 12-15 with capacity) can access certain rights conferred on them by the 2004 Act.
