Initial training for school-based attendance staff

Starting 6 March or 1 May or 12 June 2024

This training is in the form of two, 2 hour training sessions that will support colleagues to contextualise their work, whilst giving them time to consider and develop existing attendance practice in schools.  This will also help to develop confidence that will support their role and the valuable work that they do within your school.

**THIS COURSE IS A FOUNDATIONAL COURSE FOR ATTENDANCE OFFICERS/LEADS –  THIS TRAINING WILL NOT BE DEALING WITH THE NEW DfE GUIDANCE**

The two sessions will cover areas such as:

  • Attendance expectations
  • Accurate registration and coding
  • Data, calculations and reporting
  • Attendance and safeguarding
  • Pupil absence – reasons and harm
  • Challenge – policy and practice
  • Challenge – legal
