Routes 2 Success
Routes 2 Success aims to promote college as a possible destination for S2/3 pupils who require extra support in recognising their own capabilities and post-school opportunities.
What we want to achieve
- Raise aspirations of disadvantaged and disaffected young people in S2 and/or S3.
- Inform learners about a range of opportunities including Skills for Work and vocational programmes in college as positive options for S3 and/or S4.
- Prepare learners in order that they can make a successful transition from a school to college environment.
- Track learners to monitor retention and achievement and inform the future delivery of the programme.
- Monitor and review provision to ensure courses meet the learner needs.

It targets pupils who: attend a school with HE progression rates lower than 25%; live in the two most deprived quintiles (as defined by the Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation); receive free school meals; fall into the ‘looked after’ category; have been adversely affected by social or economic circumstances.
