HC Deb 06 March 1984 vol 55 cc488-9W
39. Mr. Tom Cox

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science when he will next receive a report on the Inner London education authority from Her Majesty's Inspector of Schools.

Sir Keith Joseph

Her Majesty's Inspectorate produced a report on the ILEA's educational provision in summer 1980, which was published. That was the first of a series of reports covering education across the whole, or part, of a local education authority's area. HMI will be producing about three such reports each year and it is likely to be some time before there is another covering education in inner London. HMI will, however, continue to advise me from time to time on particular developments subsequent to the 1980 report.
