I am advised by the agencies listed below as follows:
Department of Education
(a)(i) 450. Note that the data does not distinguish degrees of severity of assault. Assault includes pinching through to, and including, being struck with a weapon. Many incidents reported as "assaults" are at the lower end of the scale of violence. What is reported through the online incident notification system and the category it is reported under is at the discretion of the principal.
(b) In the timeframe provided it is not possible to disaggregate the information requested. It would require a significant diversion of resources in order to obtain the level of detail requested.
(c) 73.
(d) This data can only be provided by WA Police.
Country High School Hostels Authority
