There is currently no national requirement to record this data, meaning pupils can spend significant time out of education without visibility or accountability. Recording this information would help identify patterns, safeguard children’s mental health, and ensure support is provided rather than punishment.","committee_note":null,"state":"rejected","signature_count":8,"created_at":"2026-02-12T21:25:55.751Z","updated_at":"2026-03-23T17:57:03.940Z","rejected_at":"2026-03-23T17:56:51.558Z","opened_at":null,"closed_at":null,"moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2026-02-12T22:14:00.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"creator_name":null,"rejection":{"code":"already-happening","details":"According to statutory guidance from the Department for Education, governing bodies of maintained schools and the proprietors of other schools already must\r\nensure that a procedure is in place for recording each seclusion or restraint incident as part of the school’s duty under the Schools (Recording and Reporting of Seclusion and Restraint) (No. 2) (England) Regulations 2025. \r\n\r\nThis must be recorded and reported.\r\n\r\nYou can read more about this here: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/6943dad6501cdd438f4cf5aa/Restrictive_interventions_including_use_of_reasonable_force_in_schools.pdf"},"government_response":null,"debate":null,"departments":[],"topics":[]}}}
