Leading On - Attendance strategy, impactful action

Do your staff know what and how to contribute to improving attendance and reducing persistent absenteeism? Improving attendance and reducing persistent absenteeism requires a comprehensive strategic approach, and also requires all staff to have absolute clarity in their roles and responsibilities. Translating strategy into impactful daily, weekly and half termly actions can be a challenge.

The range of actions which drive impact are many and varied, however, robust, clear, manageable process and procedures will ensure that optimal impact is achieved.

In this webinar, possible actions within multiple job roles will be considered and how these actions dovetail together to create a supportive whole school culture.
