#NoWrongPath

On Tuesday 4th August, Scottish Results day, DYW 21 regional groups supported the #NoWrongPath campaign.  
 
#NoWrongPath is a social media movement which aims to provide inspiration and reassurance to young people receiving their results.​  

We recognised that some young people may have been disheartened by their results this year particularly in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic and the disruption that has been caused, so #NoWrongPath demonstrates to young people that many people in interesting job roles across Scotland may not have taken a straight, obvious or traditional path to get there.​ The campaign shows young people the options that are available to them and that exams results are not necessarily the key to unlocking future success. 


During #NoWrongPath week, the DYW Network ran the third of our Scotland's Biggest Parents' Event and we were delighted that our keynote speaker was First Minister, Nicola Sturgeon. 
 
The campaign was a tremendous success with the #NoWrongPath trending #1 in the UK on Twitter. A huge thank you to everyone who took part and sent such a positive and inspiring message to young people across the country.  ​
