HC Deb 13 April 1994 vol 241 c195W
Mr. Byers

To ask the Secretary of State for Education if he will state for each school for which he has approved for grant-maintained status since 1 January 1993 the(a) number of pupils attending the school at the time of approval and (b) the pupil capacity of the school.

Mr. Robin Squire

The information held by the Department showing the number of pupils on roll and the school capacity has been placed in the Library.

Mrs. Ann Taylor

To ask the Secretary of State for Education if he will make it his policy to publish or to instruct the Electoral Reform Society to publish the result of every grant-maintained ballot.

Mr. Robin Squire

No. It is for each governing body to decide how best to inform parents of the result and whether to publicise it more widely.
