Michael Gove:
To ask the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families how many pupils received a (a) fixed period and (b) permanent exclusion in the last 12 month period for which figures are available, broken down by (i) ethnicity and (ii) sex;
and how many of each were in receipt of free school meals at the time of their exclusion. [174291]
Kevin Brennan: The readily available information is shown in the tables. The provision of further information on excluded pupils free school meal eligibility would involve disproportionate cost.
