HC Deb 06 March 1984 vol 55 c483W
14. Mr. Allen McKay

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what is the average expenditure per pupil on equipment in schools which are involved in the 14 pilot technical vocational educational initiative schemes; and how this compares with expenditure at schools within the same authority but not involved in the scheme.

Mr. Dunn

The information is not available in the form requested by the hon. Member. It is likely that the costs of setting up technical vocational educational initiative courses will mean a relatively high initial cost for equipment, but this should decrease significantly in later years.
