I am writing to you under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 to request the following information, relating to cases of exclusion in secondary academy schools. I would like to remind that although there is publicly available date on permanent exclusions, there is no public data to show the proportion of exclusions that come from academy secondary schools so please do not refer me to this page: (https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/statistics-exclusions)
1. The number of permanent exclusions from secondary academy schools, for academic years 2015/16, 16/17, 17/18, 18/19, as a total figure AND percentage of the total number of permanent exclusions in your Local Authority area.
2. Please include the total number of secondary academy schools versus total number of secondary schools in your area (as well as a percentage of all schools in your area). Please list these separately for each academic year.
For example:
2015/16: Secondary Academy Exclusions: 20, Total Secondary School Exclusions: 50, Academy Exclusion %: 40.
2015/16 - Secondary Academy Schools 100, Total Secondary Schools 400, Academy School %: 25.
Please supply the same information, in the same format, but for fixed period exclusions.
Please provide the information in digital form, in a CSV file.
