Supporting School Leaders to Improve Attendance

Participants will be supported to:

• Develop and maintain a whole school culture that promotes the benefits of high attendance.
• Have a clear school attendance policy that all staff, pupils and parents understand.
• Regularly monitor and analyse attendance data to identify pupils or cohorts that require support and put effective strategies in place.
• Build strong relationships with families, listen to and understand barriers to attendance and work with families to remove them.
• Share information and work collaboratively with other schools, local authorities, and other partners when absence is at risk of becoming persistent.
