Education Engagement Advocates (EEAs)
Rugby Town (11) & Rugby Rural (12)
Welcome to the Education Engagement Advocate page, where we will be posting a number of useful links and resources to support children in your school. This is an evolving page, so please do continue to revisit for the latest updates and resources.
The Education Engagement Advocate is to support a school, in supporting a child, who is at risk of suspension or has been permanently excluded, and on a managed move. Their role is to work collaboratively with the child, family, school and agencies to support transition, attendance and behaviour. Their role is primarily to observe current practice and work collaboratively with professionals to produce a re-integration/support plan.
