(1) - (2) This data is not readily available and would require additional staff and more time than has been provided in order to make available comprehensive, accurate information. Furthermore, it would not represent an accurate picture; not all incidents reported as 'assaults' on teachers involve actual physical contact. They may involve threats of assault, 'near misses' or unintentional contact made by Education Support students who lash out when upset.
