Tell us about a deletion from your school's roll
Guidance
Before you delete a pupil from a school roll read Working together to improve school attendance: Statutory guidance for maintained schools, academies, independent schools and local authorities [Department for Education]
- a pupil's name can only be deleted from the admission register for a reason set out in regulation 9 of the School Attendance (Pupil Registration) (England) Regulations 2024
- a school must tell us when a pupil's name is deleted from the admission register . This does not apply where the pupil's name is deleted at or after the end of the last term of the school year when they are in the school's most senior class for example, pupils who leave primary school at the end of Year 6
Use this form if:
- you're deleting a pupil's name from the admissions register at a non-standard transition point
- you've sent us a Pupil Tracking Referral form, and we've agreed the deletion
- you've sent us a Child Missing Education Referral form because the pupil has moved out of the area and you have confirmation of their new address
