Information on non-teaching staff in education is not identified by type of educational establishment or individual local education authority in the returns made to the Government.

The latest published figures for December 1979 for all non-teaching staff in all education establishments—including headquarters staff—in the Northern region were 18,822 full-time and 29,235 part-time: a total of 31,425 full-time equivalent staff.

For information in respect of individual local educational authorities I refer the hon. Member to the authority concerned.
