Schools in Bristol could soon face a new rule banning exclusions due to concerns they are harming young people.
The city's youth mayors are urging schools to stop excluding students, with reports of black students being more likely to be taken out of school.
Marvin Rees, Bristol mayor, backed the zero-exclusions policy as the issue was "very close" to him.
A similar policy was introduced in Southwark, London after its' anti-racism roadmap highlighted the issue.
