Legal Terms - educational supervision order
A court order sought by a local authority pursuant to Section 36 of the Children Act 1989, concerning a child of compulsory school age believed to be inadequately taught. The order mandates that the kid be placed under the supervision of a social worker, whose primary objective is to facilitate consistent school attendance. Repeatedly failing to comply with the supervisor constitutes a criminal offense. If a child fails to cooperate, the local authority may, as a final measure, seek a care order.
