The government has named the remaining 36 lead schools for its behaviour and attendance hubs programme, completing the list of 93 settings that will lead its work across England. The Department for Education (DfE) said the hubs would 鈥渄raw on best practice to improve attendance and tackle the root causes of poor behaviour before problems escalate鈥. Lead schools are those 鈥渨ith a proven record of turning behaviour and attendance around鈥. 鈥淭hese hubs will support other schools to identify absence early, build positive cultures, engage parents, and establish strong routines.鈥 It comes after Schools Week revealed the names of 29 of the new lead schools yesterday. Evaluation published The DfE has also published a of the previous government鈥檚 behaviour hubs scheme. The current government merged behaviour and attendance hubs, cutting funding for the scheme from 拢10 million to 拢1.5 million. It found the programme 鈥渓argely achieved its objectives, driving nationwide, systemic, sustainable improvements in how schools managed behaviour and in the way they designed, developed, tested and implemented their behaviour policies鈥. There was 鈥渟trong evidence that pupil behaviour improved following the programme; in some instances, these improvements could be directly attributed to the programme itself, but additional causal factors also played a substantial role鈥. And 80 per cent of schools that participated in the evaluation 鈥渇ound the programme very useful, particularly those with small pupil numbers鈥. However, the evaluation report does not set out details on pupils’ views. A previous evaluation, which did survey pupils, found that, when comparing the results of surveys conducted in the first term of the programme to those received towards its end, pupil reported a 鈥渘egative but small鈥 change in behaviour. Overall, the proportion 鈥渞ating behaviour positively decreased from 27 per cent to 25 per cent鈥 over the period. In schools with high deprivation levels, the figure slightly improved from 25 per cent to 28 per cent. But in better-off ones, the 鈥減ercentage decreased from 27 per cent to 24 per cent鈥.
