A recent survey of school leaders suggests that poor building conditions remain a widespread issue across England’s schools, with many struggling to maintain even basic infrastructure.
The new Department for Education white paper, Every Child Achieving and Thriving, sets out a ten-year vision for England’s education system. Presented to Parliament by Bridget Phillipson, it argues that high standards and inclusion are not competing priorities but “two sides of the same coin”.

In a new analysis for FFT Education Datalab, Katie Beynon takes a fresh look at the link between Year 11 absence and GCSE results – and finds that the story is more complex than recent DfE figures suggest. While higher absence in the exam year is clearly associated with lower Attainment 8 scores, FFT’s data shows that much of this relationship is shaped by pupils’ existing attendance patterns, particularly in Year 10.
In August 2025, the Department for Education (DfE) published new voluntary national standards for non-school alternative provision – sometimes referred to as unregistered provision. These guidelines aim to strengthen quality, safety and oversight in a diverse sector that supports some of the most vulnerable children in the education system.
Safeguarding is not just about reacting when something goes wrong. It is about building an environment where all children are safe, feel heard, and are supported at the earliest sign of need. KCSIE 2025 makes it clear that safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility, whether you are a teacher, caretaker, volunteer or governor.

The UK government’s Inclusive Mainstream Fund for 2026–27 introduces £400 million per year into mainstream schools to support pupils with SEND. At face value, this looks like a significant investment. But focusing only on the headline figure risks missing the more important story. This is not just additional funding. It represents a structural shift in how inclusion is expected to work in mainstream education.
We’re excited to share that DCPro Alternative Provision Attendance will be exhibiting at the Tes SEND Show North 2026 on 13 and 14 March 2026 at the Emirates Old Trafford Cricket Ground, Manchester, one of the UK’s leading events for professionals in special...
