Mr. John Carlisle

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science when pupils who sit for general certificate of secondary education examinations fail to complete the necessary entry requirements, what remedies are available to the local education authority to recover the fees from the parent or guardian.

Mrs. Rumbold

If a pupil fails without good reason to complete the requirements, including course work, for any public examination for which the LEA or school has paid the entry fee, it is open to the LEA to recover the fee from the parent or guardian.
