Our Vision & Strategy

Our plan is to equip more young people with skills for life.

To deliver our ambitious goals, the South East Scotland Regional Strategy 2022-2025 will maintain 3 pillars of work – Programme, People and Perception – supported by our Performance programme.

For those who were unable to attend to the All Members Regional Strategy launch webinar on Wednesday 26th October, and/or for future reference, a recording of the webinar is now available below.
