Think different

Enabling the context of change:

Children and young people can miss school for a variety of reasons, for some the idea of attending can be difficult, even cause anxiety. Our compassionate approach helps children and young people back to regular attendance.

Our work:

  • Meaningful support – providing support at the point of need, to children, young people and families.
  • Active participation – helping children and young people become active participants in their achievements.
  • Removing barriers – by providing whole family support and/or coordinating multi-agency support.
  • Developing strategies – to improve attendance at individual, school and community levels.
  • Facilitating change – helping to deliver change where change is needed (e.g. culture, processes, behaviours).

Our ideas:

  • Putting children and young people first – to ensure service and support is centred on their needs.
  • Prevention by design – to prevent pupil absence and associated risks: educational underachievement, poor mental health and wellbeing, antisocial behaviour and crime.

Our themes:

  • Relevance – listening to the voices, needs and aspirations of children and young people and putting these at the heart of support.
  • Developing capabilities – in children and young people to promote interest, agency and purpose for learning.
  • Capacity – to develop understanding about the drivers behind pupil absence so that effective cross-cutting solutions can be achieved.
