Mr Timpson
My hon. Friend will have heard me refer to the new statutory guidance, which we issued last September, and the new code of practice will strengthen the arrangements for dealing with children with SEN to make sure that there is a clear focus on ensuring that no illegal exclusions take place in future. I am happy to discuss that with him if he wishes to do so.
Andrew Bridgen (North West Leicestershire) (Con)
What sanctions or actions is the Minister willing to take against schools that are illegally excluding pupils?
