HC Deb 27 October 1980 vol 991 cc87-8W
Mr. Ernie Ross

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will list those education authorities which operate an 11-plus selection scheme.

Dr. Boyson:

I refer the hon. Member to the reply which I gave on 6 May 1980 to a question by the hon. Member for Sheffield, Hillsborough (Mr. Flannery).—[Vol. 168, c. 15–16.] The position has not changed since that date. This information relates only to England. Schools in Scotland are the responsibility of my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Scotland, and those in Wales of my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Wales.
