The Children's Commissioner for England

Promoting the views and best interests of children and young people in England

Dr Maggie Atkinson, Children's Commissioner for England has published findings from her School Exclusions Inquiry in her report, "Always Someone Else's Problem".  It follows last year's report when, for the first time on record, schools admitted illegally excluding children. Our report, supported by a survey of teachers, details the scale and nature of children illegally excluded. At a conservative estimate, this affects thousands of children in several hundred schools.
