How do we monitor the progress of life-style Travellers?
There are a number of groups who may consider themselves Travellers, but there are only 2 groups that are currently defined in law as ethnic minorities within the framework of Race Relations legislation. Lifestyle or occupational Travellers should be recorded in the most appropriate ethnic category as shown on the form. If LEAs wish to record the progress of occupational or lifestyle Travellers for local purposes, they should do this in consultation with Traveller Education Services. These groups will include fairground, circus, bargee and New Travellers.
