Minister says all options explored before position is considered
Around 450 students are suspended from education settings on the Isle of Man each year.
That's according to the education minister who admits the numbers are 'concerning'.
Suspensions can range from one to 10 days depending on circumstances and rules may differ from school to school.
But Julie Edge says she does believe all other options will have been explored before a suspension is even considered:
Closure of northern section of Mountain Road extended
