Reporting and Review
Stockport Family will monitor and review Education Penalty Notices at regular intervals.
The LA shall keep records of Education Penalty Notices which include:
- a copy of each notice issued
- a record of all payments made and on what dates payment was made
- whether the notice was withdrawn and on what grounds
- whether the recipient was prosecuted for the offence for which the notice was issued
A child’s attendance in an individual case is reviewed:
- on request for an Education Penalty Notice from another agency
- on the issue of the formal warning
- at the expiry of the fifteen school day period following the issue of the formal warning
- on the date of prosecution under section 444 of the Education Act 1996
Appropriate records will be kept of cases charting their progress.
Statistics will also be produced on:
- the number of requests to issue an Education Penalty Notice and the requesting agency
- the number of formal warnings issued (and the issuing agency)
- the number of Education Penalty Notices issued (and the issuing agency)
- the number of Education Penalty Notices paid, when and how much
- the number of requests for withdrawals
- the number of notices withdrawn and the grounds of the withdrawal
- the outcome of those cases taken to court
These statistics will be available to all partner agencies.
Stockport Family will amend the general enforcement strategy as appropriate.
