Request
I am looking for information on Jersey primary schools. I have looked online and am unable to find what I need. I would like to know:
Overview data for 23/24 (only 20/21 is online)
- Number of pupils in GOJ primary schools
- Proportion of multi-lingual learners in GOJ primary schools
- Proportion of SEND pupils in all GOJ schools
- Proportion of Jersey Premium pupils in GOJ primary schools
- Number of Children Looked After in GOJ primary schools
(Question 1/4)
Response
Please see below the total number of pupils in Government of Jersey mainstream schools for academic year 2023 / 2024, including the percentage of multi-lingual pupils, Jersey Premium pupils and SEND pupils. The data has been taken from the Spring school census, Jersey Premium represents those in receipt of Jersey Premium funding and the number of Children Looked After reflects those that were looked after at the time of the census i.e. 19/01/2024.
Academic Year | Number of Pupils | % Multi-Lingual Learners | % Jersey Premium Pupils | % SEND Pupils | Number of Children Looked After |
2023/2024 | 6220
| 31.4 | 27.5 | 15.8
| <5

The Department have determined that to provide the figures fewer than 5 in relation to the number of Children Looked After in Government of Jersey mainstream schools for academic year 2023 / 2024 would likely breach the privacy of individuals therefore disclosure control has been applied under Article 25 of the Freedom of Information (Jersey) 2011 Law.
