Consultation display

The Children, Young People and Education Committee is undertaking an inquiry into Pupil Absence. The issues of pupil absence and the impact on children and young people’s learning and wider well-being was raised with the Committee during annual scrutiny of Estyn in December 2021.

The purpose of this consultation is to seek the views of stakeholders and members of the public. The responses we receive will inform the questions we ask Welsh Government Ministers and will feed into our final report.

Submitting your views

We would like you to submit your views by completing the proforma - the proforma asks for your views against the inquiry’s terms of reference. There is also a space for you to submit any other views that do not correspond neatly to our terms of reference.

Please email your completed proforma to SeneddChildren@senedd.wales 

The closing date for submitting consultation responses is Monday 20 June 2022.

Providing Written Evidence

The Senedd has two official languages, Welsh and English.

In line with the Senedd’s Official Languages Scheme the Committee requests that documents or written responses to consultations intended for publication or use in Senedd proceedings are submitted bilingually. When documents or written responses are not submitted bilingually, we will publish in the language submitted, stating that it has been received in that language only.

We expect other organisations to implement their own standards or schemes and to comply with their statutory obligation.

Please see guidance for those providing evidence for committees.
