How we can work with your Trust and schools
There are multiple ways we can draw upon the Attendance Mentoring model and outcomes to support your Trust, depending on your priorities and the scale you might wish to operate at. From Mastering Attendance Data training, all the way through to a bespoke Attendance Mentoring programme, there's a wealth of expertise and experience to access to help you tackle attendance challenges across your Trust.
Bespoke mentoring programmes
A practical, evidence based way to improve attendance in your schools - targeting persistent absence while reducing pressure on leaders and staff.
Replicating the successful methodology of AMPE (without the Randomised Control Trial), we configure the approach to suit the specific needs, size and budget of your Trust.
-
Mentors work directly with pupils and families (as identified in the exploratory phase) tackling root causes of non-attendance.
-
Schools are supported rather than overloaded - attendance leads retain oversight, not responsibility.
-
Clear structures for mentor supervision, QA, and fidelity to the model.
-
Ongoing monitoring of attendance change that can feed into SIPs, Trust improvement conversations, and Inspection readiness.
