'Learning Environments for Pupil Referral Units' provides guidelines and case study examples of effective practice in Pupil Referral Unit (PRU) accommodation. It is intended to assist those involved in providing PRU accommodation such as local authorities, education advisers, architects, engineers, and building contractors.

This publication also outlines the legal requirements and minimum expectations for providing a broad, balanced and relevant curriculum and for supporting pupils' well being. The provision of a good quality learning environment is essential to supporting these aims in the 'Every Child Matters' policy.

Key features:

• Area standards are recommended along with outline design guidance with illustrations from case study visits.

• An annex contains examples of PRU provision in five local authorities to show different ways of meeting local pupil needs.
