A COMMITTEE will learn about Oxfordshire pupils’ performance and behaviour during the past academic year.

Oxfordshire County Council’s education scrutiny committee will be presented with provisional data for attainment and exclusions from the 2016-17 school year.

The figures will be discussed at the committee’s meeting at County Hall at 2pm next Wednesday, September 27.

According to the agenda, available on the council’s website, councillors will ‘interrogate the causes of exclusions and the reasons behind their increased use’.
