§ Sir W. Smithersasked the Minister of Education the cost per child per annum in elementary schools for the years 1913 and 1949.
§ Mr. TomlinsonThe net expenditure per child in public elementary schools in the year ended 31st March, 1913, was £4 13s. 6d. As regard the current cost per pupil in maintained primary (including nursery) schools, I would refer the hon. Member to my reply to him on 30th June last, which contains the latest figures which I have available.
