Truancy receives considerable attention from the media, politicians and the public. Here Today, Here Tomorrow examines the problems of unauthorised absence from school. It considers the difficulties of accurately establishing levels of truancy, provides an overview of the reasons why pupils may not attend and, above all, based on a nationwide survey of good practice, it offers schools practical advice on what they can do to improve attendance.

‘… this extremely valuable book is full of practical examples and summaries which precisely identify what schools should be doing to combat truancy.’ Junior Education

Susan Hallam is a lecturer in the Department of Educational Psychology and Special Educational Needs at the University of London, Institute of Education.

Caroline Roaf is Director of Learning Support at Lord William’s School, Thane.
