On the topics of what accountability measures and sanctions are used in other countries, the evidence provided through the committee concluded that punitive measures are proven to be ineffective in improving students' attendance problems. Punitive measures do not address the underlying drivers of poor performance, especially for those from the most disadvantaged backgrounds. We recognise that where some students would attend school regularly, there are barriers due to disability and neurodiversity. We recommended that the ministry, in conjunction with the new Ministry of Disabled People, establish a mechanism for monitoring the number of students who do not regularly attend school full time because of their learning-support needs. We also recommended to make increasing school attendance a focus of the highest-needs review. In total, then, our report makes 22 recommendations, and the Government response is due on 9 June. Our Education and Workforce Committee members are looking forward to it, and so am I.
