Pupil Referral Units and Alternative Provision are not subject to the Progress 8 Floor Standard from the DFE

PRUs are expected to demonstrate that ‘their pupils are making good progress and their needs are being fully met’ (DFE quote from The Key for School Leaders)

What are the requirements?

Each pupil in alternative provision should have a plan that sets:

‘…clear objectives for improvement and attainment, timeframes, arrangements for assessments and monitoring progress, and a baseline of the current position against which to measure progress. Progress should be “frequently monitored” against objectives, and the provider should have a “rigorous assessment of progress”’.
