§ Mr. Adam Butlerasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what are the recommended criteria for the provision of car parking spaces in new school building projects; whether these vary as between the various types of school; and when changes were last made in these recommendations.
§ Mr. van StraubenzeeThe present criteria were introduced in 1963 and cover all types of new school building. A cost limit for each project is arrived at by allowing car spaces costing £60 each at a scale of one for each head teacher, one for every additional three teachers and one visitor's space for every 25 teachers
