HC Deb 25 April 1985 vol 77 c496W
Mr. Deakins

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what proportion of young people aged 16 to 19 years in the London borough of Waltham Forest are in full-time education.

Sir Keith Joseph

In January 1984, the latest date for which information is available the proportion of young people aged 16 and over but under 19 years (that is 16 to 18s) in Waltham Forest receiving full-time education in schools or further education establishments was 32 per cent. Information about those students of the borough in this age group who are attending universities is not readily available.
