How Good is Our School? 4 ( HGIOS4) [3] , has a strong focus on inclusion and equity. The framework includes quality indicators on 'Personalised Support' and 'Ensuring Wellbeing Inclusion and Equality', and it references bullying, including prejudice-based bullying as well as considerations for all protected characteristics.

In addition, Scotland's National Improvement Framework for Scottish Education prioritises the need for improvement in children and young people's health and wellbeing.
