Information for Local Authorities

As part of the study, we would like to find out how school mobility is experienced by practitioners working in Local Authorities in England. We would like to involve staff working in a range of teams within Local Authorities dealing with matters around school mobility and groups of mobile children and young people.

We are keen to find out your perspectives on pupil school mobility, its effect on your local area and any potential policies or practices you have in place to support children and young people, their families and school when moving schools. If you would like to take part, you will be invited to an online discussion with one of the researchers lasting up to one hour. This is an opportunity to discuss any current policies in place in your Local Authority in relation to pupil school mobility and your experiences of working around issues of pupil school mobility.

If you would like to take part in the School MOVES study or have any questions or queries, please contact Dr Laura Cristescu at [email protected].
