School Attendance: Guidance for Schools (2019) is guidance produced by the Department for Education (DFE) for use by;
- Headteachers
- Governors
- All school staff
- Local authorities
- Providers of alternative provision (for children who can’t go to a mainstream school)
It can also be a useful tool for parents and carers, as it provides information about interventions to address pupils’ poor attendance and behaviour at school.
