§ Mr. Thorpeasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science whether independent schools, before being granted recognition by the Department as efficient, are required to provide the inspectors with a prospectus setting out their terms.
§ Mr. van StraubenzeeNo, this is not a requirement for recognition. Some independent schools do not have a prospectus but where a prospectus is available HM Inspectors usually verify the accuracy of the information contained in it.
