Reducing Exclusions: A Proactive and Holistic Approach with EDClass

Support & Re-Engagement

As per the DfE’s guidance on suspensions and permanent exclusions, it is vital that pupils continue to receive their education, especially during the first five school days of a suspension.

EDClass provides a powerful solution to this challenge, empowering schools and MATs to move beyond simple compliance and adopt a proactive, holistic approach to exclusion reduction.

EDClass goes beyond a traditional online learning platform. We offer a comprehensive suite of tools and services that work together to address the root causes of disengagement and behaviour challenges, ensuring students remain connected to their education and have a clear pathway back to the classroom.

How EDClass Enhances Your Exclusion Reduction Strategies

By integrating these new elements of the EDClass platform, schools and MATs can create a robust and preventative strategy for exclusion reduction.

We work collaboratively with you to implement these effective strategies, addressing the root causes of disengagement and behaviour challenges and helping every student reach their full potential.
