HC Deb 19 June 1984 vol 62 c108W
26. Mr. McQuarrie

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he has any plans to define the maximum number of pupils in a school building based on the classroom capacity of the school building and a maximum number of pupils per class.

Mr. Dunn

No. The Education (School Premises) Regulations 1981, which apply in England and Wales, lay down the minimum total area of teaching accommodation to be provided in a maintained school by reference to the normal number of pupils in the school.
