HC Deb 07 June 1995 vol 261 c213W
Mr. Connarty

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland what guidance he issues about the minimum number of pupils for a primary school. [26857]

Lord James Douglas-Hamilton

My right hon. Friend has issued no guidance on this subject. The detailed organisation of school provision is a matter for education authorities, having regard to local circumstances and their statutory duty to secure that there is made for their area adequate and efficient provision of school education.
