Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what the non-attendance statistics were for all secondary school children resident in Warwick and Leamington in each year for which data is available since 2019.

The Department publishes figures from the school census on absence from state funded schools in England based on the location of the school, not the place of residence of pupils. The latest full academic year figures are for the 2020/21 academic year and are available at: https://explore-education-statistics.service.gov.uk/find-statistics/pupil-absence-in-schools-in-england.

The attached spreadsheet provides absence statistics for state funded secondary schools in Warwick and Leamington constituency during the 2018/19 and 2020/21 academic years. Figures are not available for the 2019/20 academic year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
