HC Deb 15 May 1978 vol 950 c9W
Mr. Richard Wainwright

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science how many schools in England which have a provision for 900 or more 11 to 16-year-olds feed those pupils wishing to pursue sixth form courses into schools catering for the 11 to 18-year-old age ranges.

Miss Margaret Jackson

In January 1977, the latest year available, 326 maintained comprehensive schools with at least 901 pupils on the register were organised to provide education for pupils aged 11 to 16 years. Information about the number of these schools which feed sixth form courses in schools organised for the 11 to 18-year-age group could not be provided without disproportionate cost.
