HC Deb 03 December 1991 vol 200 c92W
Mr. Wigley

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science how many applications have been received, and from which education authorities for specific grant support for training programmes in relation to sex education for(a) teachers, (b) parents and (c) governors.

Mr. Atkins

All LEAs in England, with the exception of Isles of Scilly, applied for and are receiving support under the grants for education support and training programme for preventative health education; and all LEAs are receiving support for school governor training. It is for LEAs to decide whether and to what extent these resources should be used to fund training in relation to sex education.
