Views of ABP Sample Clauses

Views of ABP supported pupils and their parents We relied on the four ABP Coordinators to enable us to gain access quickly to young people supported by the ABP and their parents. We asked for a sample that illustrated the range of strategies used by the ABP and for those who might be willing to talk to us. We spoke to 22 young people from across the four ABPs and 14 parents drawn from three of the four ABPs. Almost certainly, our achieved sample was skewed towards those with positive views.

A lack of availability of provision to support their goals was the issue. When compared to the education experienced by pupils in the former PRU when it was inspected in 2010, the educational provision though the ABP system described by these 22 young people represented better quality. Views of the sample parents of ABP supported pupils The 14 parents also gave an overall positive view of the education their children were receiving through the ABP system. They valued the way in which they were involved in the discussion about proposed provision and also the open and positive communications received from colleges and other providers which enabled issues to be addressed and good news to be shared. The parents, like the young people, identified the importance to success in learning of individual attention in a relaxed and understanding environment wher...
