There are clear links between school exclusion, future unemployment and criminal behaviour. Being excluded has also been shown to be a key 'trigger' leading to homelessness. By contrast, young people who are not excluded from school are more likely to leave with more and better qualifications, achieve their potential, find employment and, as a result, are less likely to take part in antisocial or criminal behaviour.
