I wouldn't try to see anything sinister in this, lks.  It is an absolute nightmare timetabling 'withdrawal' and sometimes it seems to be policy to avoid taking children from 'academic' subjects wherever possible. I'm not defending that policy!  

I find that most children hate being withdrawn from PE, Art, Technology & IT.  They are not in the least bit concerned about missing Core & Foundation subjects.  They mostly don't mind missing Music, either, I'm afraid...
