Teachers and doctors in Scotland are to be given a guide on how to spot youngsters falling into the criminal underworld
.
The guide – called Practitioner Guidance on Criminal Exploitation – aims to support a shared understanding of criminal exploitation and to help professionals identify those at risk. It includes a number of red flags to watch out for. It has been issued amid the Record's Our Kids ... Our Future campaign, which calls on the Scottish Government to provide safe spaces for kids in Scottish communities after a spate of sickening attacks on teens.
“We all pay the price for their callous disregard for the law. This guidance is an important step towards better helping victims of exploitation and stifling the organised criminals of the lifeblood they need to keep operating.”
