"This new and comprehensive book by Professor Feyisa Demie takes the current policy concerns in the UK over school exclusions and sets them in an empirical and international context. It presents stories from the people involved in decisions to exclude students from school. It presents facts and figures about the disproportionate exclusion of students from some ethnic groups, and those facing learning challenges. And it looks at the consequences of such exclusions for individuals and the school system. It is a valuable addition to the literature."

"Discrimination against ethnic minority students is nothing new; it has been with us since the days of Coard and Rampton. Demie

has shed a much needed light on the causes of the disproportionate exclusion of ethnic minority students as well as providing insightful solutions to this longstanding problem. The book will be of value to a broad readership - researchers, academics, teacher trainers, school staff and policy makers."

"Understanding the causes and consequences of school exclusions is an essential read for all stakeholders in education. This book outlines the nature and extent of the problem of school exclusions in England, in particular for students with Special Educational Needs & Disabilities and for students of Black and minority ethnic heritage... The book also highlights key implications and opportunities for research, practice, and policy, for example, cultural competency among teachers and school leaders, and working with families and with communities. Professor Feyisa Demie should be congratulated for pulling together this much needed and timely book which will undoubtedly benefit those working in education in England (and beyond)."
