Leading School Attendance Improvement Summit: Working together to implement change

Venue: Online

Date: 23 Mar 2023

Synopsis: School attendance has never faced so much scrutiny. Government have announced a series of measures designed to drive school attendance back to pre-pandemic levels – and beyond. At the start of the year the consultation School Attendance: Improving the consistency of support was launched with measures announced to improve consistency through a better, more targeted multi-agency approach.

Details:

The Schools Bill as announced in the Queen’s speech focused on implementing the recommendations in the Opportunity for all White Paper. The Bill is currently on its journey through parliament and the changes set to be introduced from September 2023 include the requirement to publish an attendance policy and implement efforts to promote regular attendance. 

In May 2022 the new Working together to improve school attendance guidance was published and set out the expectations on schools and took effect from September 2022. 

This essential conference will bring you up to date on all of the proposed changes, when to expect them and what they will look like in practice. It’ll help you prepare for what you need to do now, to stay ahead of regulation change and ensure you are able to take a fresh look at your whole school approach to improving school attendance.
