Inclusive early childhood education in Scotland: a children’s rights-based study

Reading Time: 4 minutesScotland has a strong legal and policy commitment to inclusive early childhood education. In principle, all young children should be able to attend their local nursery and take part fully in learning, play and daily activities. This includes those with additional support needs (ASN). This commitment is rooted in Scotland’s Additional Support for Learning (ASL) legislation and strengthened by the 2024 incorporation of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC).
