Recommendation
As part of the proposed register of children not in school, the Department must set out how it will collect and publish data on how many looked-after children are falling through the gaps by missing education or being ‘educated’ in unregulated education provision. This data should form part of a regular statistical release, published at minimum, annually.
Government Response Summary
The government acknowledges the need for more detailed data and will consider this as part of its wider work to develop an implementation strategy to the care review.
