Northern Education Trust is piloting a free programme of attendance support for schools.  The training will be led by senior leaders from North Shore Academy in Stockton on Tees – the academy was recently rated outstanding by Ofsted, having previously been requires improvement, and having never been graded good. Stockton on Tees is one of the most deprived areas of the country, with 65% of its students attracting pupil premium.

As part of this pilot programme, we will share North Shore Academy’s strategies and resources for improving attendance. The pilot is aimed at secondary schools with a similar context and challenges to North Shore Academy. If the pilot is successful, this approach may be extended to other phases and school types in future.
