Out-of-School Education
(asked on 22nd February 2023) - View Source
Question to the Department for Education:
To ask His Majesty's Government how many Pupil Referral Units sub-commission unregistered alternative providers to supply education placements for their children.
This question was answered on 8th March 2023
Since the 2022/23 academic year, the department has started to collect data from schools via the school census about the alternative provision (AP) they arrange. This includes AP in unregistered settings. The first mandatory collection is currently being carried out within the spring census, and so the information is not yet available.
