Purpose of the consultation
The
Children, Young People and Education
Committee undertook an inquiry into the range of Education Otherwise that at
School (EOTAS) provision including Pupil Referral Units. It focussed
specifically on the:
- Reasons for and support available for
children and young people at risk of EOTAS, including through their
exclusion from mainstream provision
- How effectively parents are engaged and
supported throughout the EOTAS process
- The variation in rates of EOTAS for
children and young people with particular characteristics (such as
learners with special educational needs or who are eligible for free
school meals) and the consequences of this
- The levels of financial support
available to support EOTAS and children and young people at risk of
becoming EOTAS and whether this represents value for money
- Responsibility and accountability for
the education of pupils who become EOTAS
- Attainment of children and young people
EOTAS
- Outcomes and wellbeing of children and
young people EOTAS
- The quality of support provided to
children and young people in the range of EOTAS provision
- Professional development support for
Pupil Referral Unit staff, including those who provide home tuition
- The potential risks for children and
young people EOTAS such as increased barriers to accessing mental health
support, increased risk of involvement with crime and the criminal justice
system such as ‘county lines’.
- Other issues closely linked to EOTAS,
for example managed moves, and the ‘off-rolling’ of pupils
The
Committee’s inquiry included individual home tuition but did not focus
on the separate issue of elective home education.

consultation closed on 18 October 2019.
