We are being asked by the Minister for Education to review how well schools, PRUs and the community is being supported. This survey will help share effective parctice across Wales and identify what might be done differently if there is further disruption.

Collecting attendance and personal characteristics data from schools September 2020

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic and schools having to adapt to new ways of working, we need to be able to collect attendance data more frequently than once a year. Collecting up-to-date information will support us and help provide the evidence we need to understand the impact that the pandemic has had on attendance. Please download the letter from the link above for more information from Welsh Government.
