About this Behaviour status

We've asked this school for real behaviour figures under Freedom of Information and haven't had a response yet.

Across Kent: suspensions by reason

Suspensions for sexual misconduct: 185 (0.7 per 1,000 pupils; England 0.9)
Permanent exclusions for sexual misconduct: 1
Suspensions for bullying: 247 (1.0 per 1,000 pupils; England 1.0)
Suspensions for abuse against sexual orientation or gender identity: 86 (0.3 per 1,000 pupils; England 0.4)
Data year: 2024/25 (DfE suspensions and exclusions statistics)

These are figures for all state schools in Kent (the council area this school is in), 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.
