Pupil Referral Unit caters for children who aren't able to attend a mainstream school. Pupils are often referred to a PRU if they need greater care and support than their school can provide. PRUs don't have to teach the full National Curriculum, but they aim to provide a broad and balanced education that covers as much of the Curriculum as possible. In general, a PRU placement is seen as a short-term measure and the aim is to reintegrate the child back into mainstream education as soon as possible, although some children may require an alternative education provision until they finish education journey. Although attending a PRU is often seen as a last resort, it can have great benefits for pupils who are having difficulties at school. The Council wants to take a more proactive and preventative approach to reducing the number of permanently excluded children and young people within the city. The PRU will offer a placement to a child for a period of assessment, to identify the most appropriate education setting. This assessment will be holistic and include input from a range of professionals, such as Educational Psychologists, Social Workers, Early Help and Health, with the aim being to identify the most appropriate long term education provision for each child. At the end of the assessment process, a decision will be made on a multi-disciplinary basis as to the most appropriate education provision for the pupil, which could include further assessment Read full description ## CPV classification Education and training services Source Contracts Finder (UK) [View official notice](https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/744e0959-ae07-492d-b7ce-b45a6fb738b1) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
