Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what the non-attendance statistics were for all primary school children resident in Warwick and Leamington in each year for which data as 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 2020/21 and are available at: https://explore-education-statistics.service.gov.uk/find-statistics/pupil-absence-in-schools-in-england.

The attached table gives absence statistics for state funded primary 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.
