This report presents the findings of an NFER project commissioned by the Merseyside Learning Partnership through the Inter Agency Development Programme.

It examines the perceived factors underpinning disaffection, through the viewpoints of young people, parents, teachers and other educational professionals. The report conveys some of the experiences, emotions and attitudes which can accompany disengagement, and analyses a range of alternative provision available to those young people manifesting disaffected behaviours.
