CASES of children sent home for sexually assaulting or harassing their classmates have more than doubled in a year.
Even in primary schools there were 618 suspensions for sexual misconduct in 2023 - with some as young as four displaying disturbing behaviour.
That compares with 243 for the previous year and the 200 sent home for the same reason 10 years ago.
In total there were 6,384 cases where youngsters were suspended from schools in England for a sexual offence last year - over 30 every school day.
Another 141 cases were so bad the pupil was expelled.
