SERVICES FOR CHILDREN. Educational Excellence Over 14,000 children in the city have parents or guardians who are dependent on benefits, and a higher than average percentage of pupils is entitled to free school meals. Increasing numbers of children live within families affected by drug and alcohol addictions. The city also has a high proportion of pupils attending private sector schools. Recent projections indicate a growth in schools rolls in the next five years. Population growth and changing school population concentrations across the city bring significant challenges in managing the school estate and planning and delivering services; school rationalisations will be required in some areas. Edinburgh has also seen a rapid growth in its bilingual population, bringing with it pupils with significant language support needs. In primary and secondary schools, attainment improved in reading, writing, and in mathematics between 2005 and 2008. In a small number of schools, attainment continues to require further improvement.
