Our report, providing the best estimate of the numbers of children who drop off the school roll and do not recieve a suitable education elsewhere (for example, through home schooling), is based on a Freedom of Information Request completed by 137 local authorities in England.

The full report will be available here on Wednesday 31st January.

Our earlier work on this issue, including a examination of different children who end up as missing education, can be found here.
