HC Deb 07 March 1979 vol 963 c676W
Sir Geoffrey de Freitas

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science (1) how many people passed French at O- and A-levels, respectively, in each of the last 10 years;

(2) how many people passed German at O- and A-levels, respectively, in each of the last 10 years.

Following is the information:

pupils have free meals on grounds of low income and the remainder have subsidised meals. In Australia, France and Italy meals may be provided in a minority of schools, but school meals are apparently not provided in Denmark, Netherlands, New Zealand or West Germany. I have no information about school meals in Canada and Luxembourg.
