Mr. Roebuck

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what was the average annual cost in the last convenient 12-month period of educating a child in the London Borough of Harrow in a secondary modern school and a grammar school, respectively.

Mr. Edward Short

I am informed by the local education authority that in 1966-67 the cost per pupil (excluding income, adjustments with other authorities, capital expenditure from revenue and board and lodging) was about £169 in grammar schools and £151 in secondary modern schools.
