The David Ross Education Trust currently has academies in the local authorities listed below. On this page you can find links to information regarding attendance and other related matters for each local authority. Please remember however that whilst each LA does retain some statutory duties, it is generally the ultimate decision of the academy and not the local authority regarding attendance and it is not unknown for LAs to give bad/outdated advice. In all cases where you are unsure please seek advice from Carol or Wendy. (If you have any further useful links then please email so that we can add these to the site.)
