Pupil exclusions
A pupil can be excluded from a school or Pupil Referral Unit (PRU) if they:
- have seriously broken the behaviour policy
- are a risk to the education or welfare of learners
The Welsh Government's 'Exclusion from Schools and Pupil Referral Units' guidance advises on:
- excluding learners from schools and PRUs
- how to continue excluded pupils’ education
- how to appeal against exclusion
It is split into seven sections, covering:
- the use of exclusion
- the process and the headteacher’s role
- discipline committees
- appeals panels
- police matters
- reintegration
- effects on school budgets
Who must use the guidance
Under Section 52(4) of the Education Act 2002, those making decisions on exclusion and running procedures or appeals must consider this advice. That includes:
- headteachers
- PRU teachers
- governing bodies
- local authorities
- appeals panels
