Request

How many children have moved school in Jersey in the past year?

How many pupils cited bullying as a reason when they look to switch schools?

Response

In the period 24 October 2016 to 24 October 2017, 98 children transferred ‘In Year’ between a States of Jersey Primary or Secondary school. Of these, fewer than five are recorded as due to bullying.
