Studybugs

Studybugs is the multi-agency platform for children's welfare in the UK. We work with schools, Multi-Academy Trusts, local authorities, public services and parents to improve children's health, safeguarding and school attendance across the UK. Our mission is to ensure every child’s welfare. Studybugs has been built with backing from the Department for Education, the NHS, UK Research and Innovation and the Open Data Institute among others, and is used by a rapidly growing list of local authorities, more than schools and several hundred thousand parents. Our passion is improving school attendance. In the current attendance crisis, we are working hard to help schools, trusts and LAs with their attendance strategy. This includes accurately recording and monitoring attendance, making it easier and quicker to understand and act on data, meeting statutory obligations and putting the DfE's Working Together guidance into practice.
