I am requesting information under the Freedom of Information Act. The information concerns parental responsibility measures in the 2023/24 academic year, based on figures provided by local authorities in the parental responsibility measures attendance census (referred to henceforth as “the census”).
My request relates directly to the figures provided by the council in response to this census, and subsequently published by the Department for Education. A spreadsheet containing relevant figures is attached, and my questions will refer to the spreadsheet.

1. Of the pupil enrolments in academic year 2023/24 submitted in response to the census, and shown in column K of the attached spreadsheet, how many pupils had an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) and/or SEN support short of an EHCP?

2. Of the pupil enrolments in academic year 2023/24 submitted in response to the census, and shown in column K of the attached spreadsheet, how many pupils had an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP)?

3. Of the penalty notices issued in relation to school attendance in 2023/24, as per column L of the attached spreadsheet, how many were in relation to pupils who had an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) and/or SEN support short of an EHCP?

4. Of the penalty notices issued in relation to school attendance in 2023/24, as per column L of the attached spreadsheet, how many were in relation to pupils who had an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP)?

5. Of the penalty notices issued in relation to school attendance for reasons other than holidays or lateness in 2023/24, as per column P of the attached spreadsheet, how many were in relation to pupils who had an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) and/or SEN support short of an EHCP?

6. Of the penalty notices issued in relation to school attendance for reasons other than holidays or lateness in 2023/24, as per column P of the attached spreadsheet, how many were in relation to pupils who had an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP)?

Some of these questions concern “EHCP and/or SEN support short of an EHCP”, while others concern just EHCPs. This is in case the council does not record the requested information in relation to “SEN support short of an EHCP”.
If the information for any question is not recorded in an available manner, please mark that question as “information not held” and process the remainder of the request.
