This intervention is core to our Scottish Attainment Challenge professional learning programme.

This intervention is already well established and growing within the Council as part of the early years collaborative (EYC). We have a database of evidence and good practice around VIG and VERP which has allowed us to report on the ongoing success of this intervention to Scottish Government throughout the life of the attainment challenge programme.
