Thousands more pupils will be supported in schools as the Department for Education today (28 September) announces four more attendance hubs.
Hubs are led by schools with excellent attendance which share practical ideas with other primary, secondary, alternative provision and special schools in England who need support to boost their attendance.
The Government has been clear that attendance is everyone’s business. Regular attendance is vital for children’s education, wellbeing and long-term development and evidence shows pupils with higher attendance tend to have higher attainment across all key stages.
The four new attendance hubs announced today are in Nottingham, Grimsby, and two in Swindon and they will support schools across the country.
