In a previous post we examined the destinations of pupils who were permanently excluded in 2018/19 by examining the types of schools they were attending in subsequent years.
In this article, we return to this theme but this time address a slightly different question: in January 2023, where were all the pupils who had previously been permanently excluded up to the end of 2022?
How many were attending mainstream schools? How many were in alternative provision? How many seemed to be outside the state-funded education system in England?
We use three datasets from the National Pupil Database (NPD):
- Termly School Census
- Annual Local Authority (LA) Alternative Provision (AP) Census
- Exclusions
We use data that for the period 2012 to 2023.
