The Children and Young People’s Centre for Justice (CYCJ) very much welcomes the opportunity to respond to the call for views by the Education, Children and Young People’s Committee on the Restraint and Seclusion in Schools (Scotland) Bill.
The Bill is a member’s bill from Daniel Johnson MSP and proposes to create statutory guidance and duties in relation to the use of restraint and seclusion in schools. It is currently at Stage 1 and more information can be found here.
