Contacts KnowYourService e-mail Focus No 5 SCHOOL BOARDS Focus on Truancy Non-attendance at school is an issue for almost all schools, and one that is now being given a much higher priority than in the past. Obviously, not all failure to attend school is truancy but it is not always easy to draw a clear simple line around "truancy". The causes are often complex, and the solution is not always to blame or punish the child. A useful starting point is to consider the range of reasons young people might have for not going to school. The following are some things young people have said, explaining why they hadn't gone to school that day: SOME REASONS FOR NOT GOING TO SCHOOL "I just felt sick every time I thought about turning the corner and seeing that school in front of me". "I was always in the top class. I just couldn't stand everyone saying I was a swot. After second year I never went back." "There's nothing I'm good at. What's the point going every day for just to learn what you already know - nothing!" "I don't mind school but most of my pals just say let's go down the town, so you go".

Learning from the October 19, 2004 edition CLOSE EYE: In San Francisco's new fight against truancy, attendance officer Chris Lazzaro of Everett Middle School goes after persistently absent students. NOAH BERGER/AP Schools lay tender trap for truants By G. Jeffrey MacDonald The goal of boosting school attendance, by finding truants and getting them back in class, seems as virtuous as mom and apple pie. But even as many school districts take a more aggressive stance against truancy, a debate has ensued over whether new state and federal policies will eventually sully their efforts to address the problem. In dispute: policies that give monetary rewards to districts which manage to improve attendance rates. Depending on the perspective of those who study truancy and dropout patterns, these financial incentives to get regular absentees into school might save, or alienate, or even exploit a population living largely on the margins of school and society.

SEARCH powered by FreeFind Malta Today archives news The most alarming aspect of truancy is that parents believe their child to be at school, when in reality this is not the case, according to Mary Rose Mifsud, director of the student services and international relations office within the education division. Ms Mifsud said that on the plus side, truancy is uncommon amongst Maltese school children, so much so that no relevant statistics are available from the education division. "School uniforms help to identify minors easily, especially when these are expected to be within their school grounds during school hours," she said. "School authorities obtain much of their information about cases of truancy from members of the general public who report children who have been identified from their uniform colours and badges." Ms Mifsud said that schools are generally only involved in truancy cases when it is clear that children have left the school without permission.

Appeal of JUDITH VITELLO, on behalf of her son Jason, from action of the Board of Education of the West Irondequoit Central School District and Dr. Joseph R. Sproule, Superintendent. Decision No. 12,813 (September 25, 1992) The Legal Aid Society, attorneys for petitioner, Patti W. Moss, Esq., of counsel SOBOL, Commissioner.Petitioner appeals from respondents' decision to deny petitioner's son admission to summer school to take a Participation in Government class and credit for an English 12 class that he attended at the East High Evening School Program in the Rochester City School District. She requests that I order respondents to permit Jason to take Participation in Government in summer school commencing July 1, 1992, and also order respondents to extend credit for English 12. Petitioner further requests that I review respondents' truancy policy. The appeal must be sustained in part. Petitioner's son was enrolled as a 12th grade student in the West Irondequoit Central School District during the 1991-92 school year. The record indicates that he needed the following credits to obtain a local diploma: English 11 (1 credit), English 12 (1 credit) and Participation in Government (1/2 credit). Prior to the start of the school year, the principal of West Irondequoit High School permitted petitioner's son to enroll in the English 12 class at the East High Evening School Program in the Rochester City School District. The principal informed petitioner's son that credit for the English 12 class was conditioned upon, among other things, his passing all of his courses at West Irondequoit High School.

[121514] Mr. Ivan Lewis: Since 1997 we have been supporting schools and Local Education Authorities through funding a range of local and national initiatives to tackle truancy and improve school attendance, including the dissemination of school attendance guidance, a series of practitioner conferences and funding for the introduction of electronic registration systems into over 500 schools to track and manage absence. We have also co-ordinated national truancy sweeps in consultation with schools, Local Education Authorities and the police, and we have issued guidance on the operation of truancy sweeps. The last nationally co-ordinated truancy sweeps took place over three weeks last month involving all police forces in England and a further round is planned for the autumn. At local level truancy sweeps are now a regular feature in most Local Education Authorities and they are planned and conducted in partnership with schools, the police and other bodies such as Connexions and Youth Offending Teams. All schools are encouraged to develop good links between themselves and their local police. This includes the development of joint school and police liaison protocols.

80. Social Inclusion: Pupil Support Guidance From The NCB Vol.1 The guidance was launched at a conference held at the Commonwealth Institute The Social Exclusion Unit s report truancy and school Exclusion set out our http://www.dfes.gov.uk/publications/guidanceonthelaw/10-99/sips.htm

Social Inclusion: Pupil Support Launch Conference : summary of key messages. The guidance was launched at a conference held at the Commonwealth Institute in London on 11 Oct 1999. The conference had four main aims: to launch the Social Inclusion : Pupil Support (SIPS) guidance; to launch the report Evaluation of the Behaviour and Discipline Pilot Projects (1996-99) Supported under the Standards Fund Programme; to announce the 2000-2001 Social Inclusion: Pupil Support Standards Fund grant allocations; to give participants a clearer view of how the SIPS guidance can be implemented. What follows is a brief summary of what speakers at the conference had to say. The clear message from the multi-agency group of participants was that, working together, we can reduce exclusions and truancy. The social inclusion agenda Jacqui Smith, Parliamentary Under- Secretary of State for School Standards, outlined the importance which the Government attaches to raising educational standards for all children and the initiatives they are supporting to achieve this goal. "It's an obvious thing to say - but children get only one chance at school. But every day, tens of thousands of children miss out on their education because they are playing truant or have been excluded from school. The consequences for their education are dire. The situation is unacceptable - we cannot just stand by and watch. That is why we are working towards a simple but challenging goal: to raise educational standards for all. This can only happen if children are in school and learning. The Social Exclusion Unit's report Truancy and School Exclusion set out our ambitious plans for reducing levels of truancy and school exclusion by one third by 2002. The keys to meeting this target are early intervention and prevention through multi-agency working and partnership with parents."
