So here's the state of play as of 6th July -
First the good news - the bans at Thomas Clarkson school, Cambridgeshire and Glan y Mor, Gywnedd are both going - the former from September and the latter with immediate effect.
In terms of new bans, I currently know of six:
- Eastwood Academy, Southend
- Freman College, Hertfordshire
- Moulton school, Northamptonshire
- Monkwearmouth school, Sunderland
- Churchill Academy, North Somerset (years 9-11 only)
- Withernsea High School, East Yorkshire
Last year there were 15 new bans by the end of term, and 1 ban lifted, so it looks like 2012 will be slower than 2011, which is good news.
Maps and tables will be updated later.
Bans threatened but withdrawn
- Herne Bay School, Kent
- Cecil Jones School, Southend
- Norton College, North Yorkshire
- Hipperholme and Lightfoot School, Calderdale
- UCA Academy Northwich, Chester and Cheshire West
- Endeavour Academy, Suffolk
- Greensward Academy. Essex
- Coleshill School, Warwickshire
- Colne School, Essex
Update - 13th August 2012
The following now have bans, in addition to those listed above
- Leeds West Academy, Leeds
- Dixons City Academy, Bradford
- Bath Community Academy, Bath and North East Somerset
- Martin High School, Liecestershire
- Ipswich Academy, Suffolk
- Suffolk New Academy, Suffolk
Overall the numbers are very much the same as in 2010 and 2009, but much less than 2011
