During 1999/2000 at the request of the Secretary of State and Education, Ofsted inspected 10 secondary schools with a specific focus on truancy and exclusion. Short visits were made to 80 other secondary schools where truancy and exclusion were above the national average.

This report is based on the findings of the inspections and visits and analyses the actions taken by schools to address these serious problems and to establish how the actions relate to other areas of school improvement.
