Awaiting Data

- Permanent exclusions for sexual misconduct: 0
- Suspensions for bullying: 23 (1.1 per 1,000 pupils; England 1.9)
- Suspensions for abuse against sexual orientation or gender identity: 7 (0.3 per 1,000 pupils; England 0.8)
- Data year: 2024/25 (DfE suspensions and exclusions statistics)
These are figures for all state secondary schools in Trafford, not this school's own – the government doesn't publish them school by school. A suspension can have up to three reasons. Most sexual harassment between pupils never leads to a suspension, so these figures show only part of the picture.
