The Department for Education is now monitoring WiFi use to track attendance after ordering staff to return to office working at least four days a week.

Officials who do not physically attend an office for 30 days or more will be reported to their managers.

The DfE confirmed this week it is tracking logins to its virtual private network (VPN) and local area network (LAN).
