While the legal responsibility in ensuring children of compulsory school age regularly  attend the school at which they are on roll lies with parents, good attendance is secured when there is a strong culture of partnership between the Local Authority, School Governors, head teachers, parents and other partners each with clearly expressed and understood roles and responsibilities.

This course looks at how schools can work with key agencies and families to ensure all pupils receive a suitable education which allows them to gain their full potential.

Participants will be able to maximise their own practice in order to achieve best outcomes.
