Warning as one in eight pupil referral units 'inadqeuate.'.

The article reports that one in eight of England's Pupil Referral Units (PRUs) are inadequate, according to Ofsted. A survey in 2006 found that only around half of the PRUs were found to be outstanding and the other half as problematic. According to the report, the keys to success for PRUs include pupils' high expectations, better curriculum, focus on improving academic and personal development and a better working relationship with local authorities.
