HC Deb 08 June 1981 vol 6 c54W
Mr. Deakins

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what information he has as to the number of courses not involving foreign languages at institutions of higher education which require a foreign language as an entrance requirement.

Dr. Boyson

This information is not available within the Department. Entrance requirements for universities can be found in "The Compendium of University Entrance Requirements for First Degree Courses in the United Kingdom", published by the Association of Commonwealth Universities for the Committee of Vice Chancellors and Principals of the Universities of the United Kingdom. Similar information in respect of colleges in England and Wales outside the university sector is contained in "A compendium of Advanced Courses in Colleges of Further and Higher Education", published by the regional advisory councils for further education in England and Wales. Copies of both are in the Library.
