Evaluation of the children missing education database pilot

Government Social Research

The evaluation aimed to assess the effectiveness of the children missing education (CME) database pilot and identify lessons to inform a possible roll out of the database arrangements.

This evaluation examined the pilot local authorities’ existing systems and processes for identifying CME before the pilot began, as well as the process of receiving the data from NHS Shared Services Partnership (NWSSP) and independent schools, and the number of CME known before and the potential known after the CME database pilot. 

This research included:

  • interviews with the 7 local authorities involved in the pilot
  • interviews with a sample of 6 independent schools
  • the development of a logic model and theory of change

The report presents the fieldwork findings, and sets out recommendations for the Welsh Government.
