GIRFEC: The Five Well-being QuestionsGIRFEC requires that at all stages of supporting our pupils, teachers are asked to keep the following five questions uppermost in their minds:

1. What is getting in the way of this young person’s wellbeing?2. Do I have all the information I need to help this young person?3. What can I do now to help this young person?4. What can the school do to help this young person?5 What additional help, if any, may be needed from others?
