# Increase in Standards Around Positive Transitions-care

Schools are offering an increasingly wider range of curriculum opportunities regarding Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Global Citizenship, University Guidance and Wellbeing. Positive transitions-care is brought to the forefront in all of these areas.

SPAN is a Supporting Partner of the Council of International Schools (CIS). As part of a school’s commitment to high-quality international education to students, parents and staff members, the CIS Accreditation process asks schools to demonstrate how they are implementing and developing “**active support for students and families in transition**” within and between schools (Standards E5 and E6). Equally, by choosing the recent CIS Pathway 2, schools can re-validate their international accreditation through a strategic deep dive, focusing on “**Wellbeing for life-long learning**” as a driver for school improvement. 

Another Safe Passage Across Networks Supporting Partner, the International School Counsellors Association (ISCA) has recently included transitions-care in their Student Standards.
