HC Deb 25 March 1987 vol 113 c178W
Mr. Colvin

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what are the pupil-teacher ratios for primary and secondary schools in Scotland.

Mr. John MacKay

The latest date for which information is available is September 1985—when the ratios for primary and secondary were 20.4:1 and 13.5:1 respectively. That information is contained in Scottish Education Department "Statistical Bulletin No. 4/B1/1986", a copy of which is in the Library.
