Dark Horses has created an eye-opening and challenging film for the education charity Football Beyond Borders (FBB), telling the story of a vulnerable young student who, whilst dealing with a difficult home life, makes a mistake at school which leads to his exclusion. Voiced by Daniel, a young person who has experienced school exclusion, No More Empty Chairs, raises awareness of the alarming increase in the number of students facing exclusion from school in England and the hugely detrimental effect it has on a young person's life, with less than 2% of excluded pupils finishing school with the qualifications they need in GCSE English & Maths. The campaign supports FBB’s call for the Government to at least match their catch-up funding of £1 billion for next year to extend the Looked After Premium to become a new 'Vulnerability Premium'. This would cater for children who are known to social services either through a Children in Need Plan or a Child Protection Plan and help keep them in school. Delivered in his own words and based on real stories, the film portrays a young male student who sees school as being somewhere to belong, an escape from his difficult homelife. As the film progresses we find out that his troubles at home have contributed to his behaviour deteriorating, ultimately leading to his exclusion from school.
