What happens to pupils permanently excluded from special schools and pupil referral units in England?

Abstract: There is widespread consensus in the research and policy-related literature over the last decade that young people who have been permanently excluded from school are at a far greater risk of a variety of negative outcomes than young people who have not had this experience. These negative outcomes include prolonged periods out of education and/or employment; poor mental and physical health; involvement in crime; and homelessness. This article presents evidence from a small-scale qualitative study of destination… Show more

“…Participants experienced schooling as meaningless and disengaging as they struggled to meet the expectations of multiple educators across multiple settings. Consistent with the literature, participants emphasized that the key to adjusting to these changes was a supportive and consistent peer group (Pirrie et al, 2009), within a positive environment.…”

“…Furthermore, suspensions have led to lengthy absences with the onus on the family to find accommodations (Carroll, 2008;Pirrie et al, 2009;Skiba & Knesting, 2001).

“…In the words of Cook (2005) these are the "…the hard to reach, hard to teach, most alienated, most vulnerable and those at the end of the line -for whom nothing has worked so far" (p. 90). They include, but are not limited to, children who have been excluded from mainstream schools, children who refuse to attend mainstream school and cases where the child or their family has been in dispute with the school (Cook, 2005;DfE, 2013;Thompson & Russell, 2009;Pirrie et al, 2011). School exclusions are associated with a number of negative long-term outcomes including poverty, social exclusion, involvement in crime, poor mental and physical health, and increased substance use and abuse (e.g., Berridge et al, 2001;Coles et al, 2002;Daniels et al, 2003;MacDonald, 2007).…”

“…These schools are similar to Charter schools in the United States and Canada. Under this arrangement, free schools can focus on proving alternative, rather than mainstream, educational provision for students who have stopped attending school often for multiple, complex and unique reasons (Cook, 2005;Pirrie et al, 2011). Partly due to their novelty, very little is known about this type of school, the practices used at such schools and what effects they may be having.…”
