Back on Track: A strategy for modernising alternative provision for young people (May 2008)
Around 135,000 pupils a year spend time in non-school settings for a range of reasons: permanent exclusion, bad behaviour, special educational needs or challenging personal circumstances. About one-third attend Pupil Referral Units; the remainder are taught in further education colleges, the private or voluntary sectors. Achievement by these pupils is poor. This White Paper sets out detailed proposals to support more effective early intervention by schools to tackle problems before they become acute, and to provide high-quality support for those young people who have to be educated outside of school, to get them back on track.
