DfE-Inclusion & the academisation of English secondary schools: trends in the placement of pupils with significant SEN & those permanently excluded

Centre member Alison Black is leading on this project which aims to analyse a national dataset (the National Pupil Database) about pupils and schools to explore the routes some vulnerable pupils take through secondary schools. The project team (Alison Black, Alexey Bessudnov and Brahm Norwich) are interested in comparing trends over time (2003-2015) with a focus on: pupils with SEN that enter at year 7 and exit during later years; and all pupils permanently excluded from secondary schools.  Please visit the project website for further information.
