HC Deb 17 May 1973 vol 856 cc383-4W
Mr. Knox

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many 4-year-old children attend nursery school in Scotland at present; and what proportion this is of all four-year-old children in Scotland.

It is provisionally estimated that at January 1973 10,260 four-year-old children were receiving nursery education in education authority and grant-aided schools in Scotland, representing approximately 11.5 per cent. of the total four-year-old population.
