Ethnic breakdown of all school exclusions in London since 2000
Dear Department for Education,
I would like to request an ethnic breakdown of all school exclusions in London since 2000, preferably in Excel format.
I would also like to request the graduation rates from pupils from Pupil Referral Units and the qualifications achieved over that period of time.
In addition, I would like the Ofsted results (Good, outstanding, etc.) for all London PRUs since 2000.
Ideally all this information would be broken down from each pupil referral unit in London
Yours faithfully,
Ricardo Hylton

In order to identify and locate the information that you have asked for I
