Pupil Referral

Publication date: 
Monday 14 August 2023
Request: 

The total capacity of Pupil Referral Units in Thurrock Council at any given date in February 2023. And for the same date the total number of pupil enrolments in Pupil referral Units within your council. This should give me two numbers: first the capacity number (e.g. 100) and second the actual number of enrolments (e.g. 80).
