Abstract: In January 2024, building on the Genomics Beyond Health report, the Department for Education (DfE), with co-funding from the Government Office for Science (GO-Science), commissioned Ipsos UK through the Futures Procurement Framework to understand the potential future risks and opportunities of the use of genomics in education. The Government Office for Science's Beyond Health report (Government Office for Science, 2022) highlighted two potential issues to be explored. Firstly, the potential expansion of an unregulated commercial market in genomic testing in education-related fields. Secondly, the potential use of genomic screening at birth to identify additional educational needs before other data is available; for example, to identify children at higher risk of developing conditions associated with Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND). As part of this project, Ipsos reviewed the most relevant literature, held a workshop with key relevant stakeholders in the field, and discussed findings with relevant policy teams in DfE to discuss emerging themes and concerns. This summary paper explores the policy implications of the two potential future scenarios and makes recommendations to the DfE for next steps.
