Teachers and governments all agree that if you wish to raise educational standards then it’s imperative to improve school attendance, and yet an average of around ten per cent of secondary pupils are missing school on a daily basis. Despite governments around the globe trying to address this situation, any improvements have been negligible and improvements in school attendance have been stubbornly hard to achieve. As an internationally recognised expert on this topic, Professor Ken Reid offers workable, practical solutions to help schools improve attendance and to reduce non-attendance and truancy at government level, school and local authority level, individual pupil level and at the family level. Underpinned by the very latest research, but expanded upon with an accessible, practitioner focus, the issues covered by this topical text include: The causes of non-attendance and truancy Successful interventions and the evidence from research Reflections on the attempts to find national solutions Implementing home-school solutions An agenda for the future Supporting throughout with case-studies and workable solutions to the most demanding of situations, this book will be essential reading for head teachers, deputy head teachers, teachers and any educational professional eager to raise standards for all.

"For students to be successful in school, they first have to be in school." With that simple statement, Jessica Sprick and Randy Sprick launch a compelling case for prioritizing student attendance. This comprehensive guide provides school and district-level administrators and teams with the background information, strategies, and tools needed to implement a multitiered approach to improving attendance and preventing chronic absence. The authors use the results of their work in schools throughout the United States to dispel the myth that educators have little control over student attendance and provide success stories from elementary and secondary schools that have reversed longstanding patterns of absenteeism. Citing extensive research, Sprick and Sprick share details about the shocking prevalence of chronic absence in U.S. schools and its effects on students, teachers, families, and the school community. They explain how to replace punitive approaches to absenteeism with effective methods that begin with universal supports and continue through Tier 2 and Tier 3 interventions for students with more persistent problems. Specifically, they explain how to Build an effective school team to address absenteeism . Create systems to collect accurate data and set priorities. Develop an attendance initiative that generates student enthusiasm as well as staff, parent, and community support. Design and implement strategies that are tailored to specific schoolwide concerns and demographics that reach all students. Equipped with the information and tools presented in this book, educators can ensure wise use of staff and other resources—and create a culture of attendance that is the foundation of successful schools.

Learner absenteeism poses serious challenges to schools in their endeavours to manage the phenomenon effectively. Schools should draw a clear distinction between authorised and unauthorised absenteeism. The different manifestations of learner absenteeism cannot be dealt with in the same manner, but requires actions and/or sanctions which fit a specific type of absence. This study explores the manner in which a secondary school, situated in a semiurban area managed learner absenteeism. A detailed study of a secondary school from the district Ekurhuleni (D4), situated in Gauteng East, was conducted. For purposes of this study the following documents were utilised in attempts to address propositions relating thereto: national legislation, the Policy on Learner Attendance as well as ancillary documents relating to the management of absenteeism in casu. In-depth interviews were conducted with the principal, educators and learners in order to understand what their perception of absenteeism is, the reasons for absenteeism, and how it is managed at the school. Interviewees were observed over an extended period of time in order to further supplement the data. The data presented, indicates that the school uses an advanced electronic system to record learner attendance which is validated by manual systems for the recording of learner absenteeism. The school has developed a learner Code of Conduct which set the standards for school attendance as well as the sanctions applicable for absenteeism. Despite these measures at the school, learners are still absent for part of the day or a full school day. Absenteeism includes both authorised and unauthorised absenteeism as well as valid and invalid reasons. Although the school imposes sanctions outlined in their Code of Conduct, this has not eradicated the challenge of learner absenteeism. I argue in the study that different schools encounter different challenges regarding absenteeism, to be addressed on an ad hoc basis. Each individual school should be encouraged to develop measures to be incorporated in individual policies regarding absenteeism. Special attention has to be given to valid yet unauthorised absenteeism and how to manage it. It is therefore recommended that lacunae in the Policy on Learner Attendance should be addressed accordingly to ensure effective management of attendance.

Behaviour remains a huge issue of concern at all levels of education. This book draws together research and practice to uncover the complexities of improving behaviour and attendance in school and offers a range of practical solutions aimed at tackling behavioural issues and its prevention for schools, teachers, non-teaching staff, and those working to support them in Local Authorities. It considers current concerns relating to the behaviour of children and young people, the theoretical underpinnings of possible approaches to improving behaviour and attendance, as well as what we know about the causes of disaffection. In exploring ways that behaviour and attendance can be improved, the authors examine a range of perspectives including school management and whole school policies, and behaviour in and around the school, in the classroom, and of individual pupils, particularly those at risk of exclusion from school. It discusses the work of Behaviour and Educational Support Teams, teacher coaches, learning mentors and nurture groups as ways of supporting children and young people, particularly those identified as being 'at risk'. It also outlines ways of improving relationships between the school and home, as well as the ways that parents can be supported to assist in changing their children's behaviour and attendance. Alternatives to exclusion and new curricula are discussed in relation to their success in maintaining students in education. The final chapters focus on attendance and what can be done to improve it in the general school population and those students who are persistent absentees. Throughout the book case studies are used to illustrate examples of good practice and the impact on children, parents and teachers. The book concludes with an overview of key issues emerging for practice.
