Described by General Secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders (ASCL) Geoff Barton as 'beyond repugnant' (TES, 2017), 'off‐rolling' is the removal of pupils from the school roll via various unofficial means. This study positions a plethora of triggers for this form of exclusion, its prevalence and wider social implications. These perspectives will be evaluated alongside current national data and media perspectives, integrated with the outcomes of narrative accounts from practitioners in schools across England in 2018. The study concludes by commenting on the impact of performance‐driven school cultures on limiting the choices parents and pupils are able to make when confronted by the prospect of exclusion from education. The longer‐term social dangers presented by labelling a cohort of young people as marginal to education and society are considered, as is the fitness for purpose of the current education system in the meeting of pupil needs.

我们知道停产会发生。为什么我们仍然什么都不做？

学校和大学领袖协会 (ASCL) 秘书长杰夫·巴顿 (Geoff Barton) 将其描述为“令人反感”（TES，2017 年），“退学”是通过各种非官方方式将学生从学校名册上除名。这项研究为这种形式的排斥、其普遍性和更广泛的社会影响定位了大量触发因素。这些观点将与当前的国家数据和媒体观点一起进行评估，并结合 2018 年英格兰各地学校从业者的叙述性叙述的结果。 该研究最后评论了以绩效为导向的学校文化对限制家长和学生选择的影响当面临被排斥在教育之外的前景时，能够做出。
