Children Missing Education

All submissions for Children Missing Education must be made through the online portal. Manual submissions sent by post or email after this date will be declined and not recorded. This measure is to promote the use of online submissions, which are more effective and efficient for processing information in these areas.

The link to the Online Portal is available at: Local Authority Online Portal

Children missing from education are those children of compulsory school age who are not on a school roll, or being educated otherwise, and have been out of education for a substantial period of time, usually four weeks or more.

 

Roles and Responsibilities

We are required to identify all children of compulsory school age who reside in the county and who are not in receipt of education, and then help them to access appropriate provision. Schools, pupil referral units and other services and agencies that come into contact with children and young people are required to take part in the process to reduce children becoming at risk of going missing, and also in the admission and tracking procedures.
