This study uses the age range 16-64, and the evidence scoped covered the 10 year period up to December 2004 with the main focus on Scottish publications. The main limitations of the study lie in its short timescale and restricted budget. This has resulted in the omission of unpublished work and the team did not visit specialist libraries or hand search journals. Therefore the material presented in this report is not comprehensive.

Disabled children have broadly the same aspirations as non-disabled children and the outcomes they would like to achieve are therefore similar. However, for many disabled children and young people, there are fundamental outcomes that need to be achieved as a foundation for others, including and especially, communication. This project focused on better understanding ‘outcome models’ for all children and young people and for children and young people in the diverse and challenging context of disability. This research was commissioned by the Scottish Government’s Children’s Rights and Wellbeing Division to identify and develop an outcomes model based on Getting It Right for Every Child (GIRFEC), and the SHANARRI indicators of wellbeing (“Safe, Healthy, Achieving, Nurtured, Active, Respected, Responsible, Included”) for disabled children and young people in Scotland. It was to include both children with disabilities as defined by the Equality Act 2010 and those defined as having additional support needs in the context of the Education (Additional Support for Learning) (Scotland) Act 2004. The project was modified early on to focus on mapping outcomes work that is already in progress, and to identify the essential components of outcomes models. (Edited publisher abstract)
