Getting it right for every child (GIRFEC) is Scottich Government’s commitment to provide all children, young people and their families with the right support at the right time.

The GIRFEC principles and values are based on children’s rights. GIRFEC contains eight wellbeing indicators (SHANARRI) that describe how a child or young person is doing at a point in time.
