The national average for the group is 92.5%. We continue to work hard to improve attendance further but the two support officers in each school and an attendance officer in each has had a significant impact on improving attendance to school.
Exclusions – The proportion of disadvantaged students excluded was 11.2% in 2016 compared to a national figure of 16.5%. The academy continues to work hard in order to reduce the number of exclusions for disadvantaged pupils through a range of strategies, work with external specialists and also through ongoing investment in the PSU,BEST and an on site exclusion centre.
