§ Mr. Damian GreenTo ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills how many(a) temporary and (b) permanent exclusions were made by (i) primary, (ii) secondary schools and (iii) all schools in each year since 1997, broken down by local education authority. [133690]
§ Mr. Ivan LewisInformation on fixed term exclusions is not yet available centrally. The Department has recently started to collect information from local202W education authorities on both fixed term and permanent exclusions on a termly basis. However, reliable findings from this data collection exercise are not expected to be available until next year.
A table showing information requested on permanent exclusions has been placed in the House of Commons Library.
