Number of suspensions and exclusions in England 's state schools has been rising in recent years .

Nearly 90% of those excluded over the past five years also had special educational needs and disabilities.

Campaigners warn affected children can experience long-term impacts.

Government has acknowledged the situation is at "crisis point" and says it is determined to drive up standards.

Anne Longfield says a culture of exclusions has been driven by an âemphasis on academic achievement and gradesâ. She believes the focus should be on one -to-one teaching where needed.

Education Minister Stephen Morgan says the government is already investing Â1 billion in Send and providing access to specialist mental health professionals in every school.
