IMPACTED EVALUATION: NEW REPORT 1

In the 2022-23 academic year, 22.3% of all pupils were persistently absent. To address this, ImpactEd Evaluation has launched a national project called Understanding Attendance. This is designed to help schools and Trusts to identify the underlying drivers of pupil absence in their settings, and supporting them to assess the impact of their interventions.  

Report 1 of Understanding Attendance provides insights on Phase One of the project, looking at attendance rates of over 200,000 pupils and surveys from 30,000 young people during the Autumn term 2023.
