The Department for Education is addressing persistent pupil absenteeism and children missing education in England, where approximately one in five school-age children miss at least one day per fortnight. The department is considering measures including a national register of out-of-school children, parental notification duties, and improved attendance enforcement, while also examining whether home-to-school transport policy adequately supports attendance.
