Percentage of children in need with at least one fixed period exclusion (3211) Metric type

This is the percentage of school-age (aged 5 to 16 inclusive) children in need with at least one fixed period exclusion from school at 31 March. When a pupil is not allowed to attend (or is suspended from) a school for a set period of time. This can be for part of a school day and does not have to be for a continuous period. A pupil can be excluded for 1 or more fixed periods up to a maximum of 45 school days in a single academic year. This total includes exclusions from previous schools covered by the exclusion legislation so pupils with repeat exclusions can inflate fixed-period exclusion rates.

Due to the appeals process exclusions information runs to a much later timetable than other information from the National Pupil database so exclusions information from the previous period is matched to the Children in Need census data for the year reported.

For this measure all children aged 5 to 16 years who were in need at 1 April of the year reported were identified and exclusions information has been provided for the previous year for this cohort. It excludes children who were looked after at any point during the period, but includes looked after children who were also the subject of a child protection plan.
