As part of the service reform and modernisation agenda, the Council re-structured in 2007 and brought together the education and social work functions into one Council Service which will work closely together to deliver improved services - to people of all ages - in Glasgow.
There is a devolved management structure which aims to maximise the potential to make appropriate links across health, education and all aspects of social work services.
Further information on each service is available below:
