What do we mean by Children Missing Education?
Following reasonable enquiry, if the child’s whereabouts are unknown, a referral should be made to the children missing education team.
We rely on schools to tell us when:

Anyone who comes into contact with children and their families has a role to play in safeguarding children as described in statutory guidance Working together to safeguard children. Local Authorities have a duty to take all reasonable steps to identify and track children missing from education.
Where there are wider concerns about the safety of a child, schools and professional bodies may wish to refer directly to the Multi Agency Safeguarding Hub. Please refer to the guidance and the CSE screening tool on the following webpage: CSE Information for Professionals
