Watch our on-demand webinar as we explain the changes and help you understand how they will affect you and your school.
The discussion covered changes to:
- Pre-exclusion considerations;
- Managed moves and alternative provision;
- Withdrawing an exclusion; and
- Virtual meetings.
We also showcased some of the resources we have prepared for the new Exclusions Support Pack, which provides you with everything you need to handle the changes effectively.
