Attendance, Missing, and Home Education Service is collating some information about schools in Derbyshire who offer flexi-schooling and how many young people have these arrangements. If you haven’t already, please do take the time to fill out the flexi-schooling survey – regardless of whether your school offers this as an option currently. Your engagement is appreciated.
Integris and Arbor schools who do not wish to renew their MIS Licence and Support contract on 1 April 2026, please ensure you have emailed DataManagement@derbyshire.gov.uk your notice to cancel no later than 30 November 2025.
Please could schools follow the Suspensions template instructions – V6 when reporting suspensions to the local authority. Please can schools check that they are using Version 6 of the template and that the DfE number and school name are added to the file name. This will enable speedier importing to Derbyshire systems.
