HC Deb 26 March 1985 vol 76 cc126-8W
Mr. Freud

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science whether he will list in the Official Report the proportion of pupils in comprehensive, secondary modern and grammar schools respectively, in each local education authority in 1979 and each subsequent year for which figures are available.

Mr. Dunn

[pursuant to his reply, 19 March 1985, c. 481]: To provide the information requested for the past six years would incur disproportionate cost. However, the following table lists that for 1979 and 1984.
