HC Deb 21 January 1991 vol 184 cc18-9W
Mr. Norris

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science what information is available to his Department on the number of pupils in each local education authority who receive education in schools maintained, or formerly maintained, by another local education authority.

Mr. Fallon

Every year each local education authority submits to the Department a return listing pupils who belong to its area but who are attending local authority-maintained or grant-maintained schools outside that area on the third Thursday in January. The pupil numbers as at January 1990 for each LEA are listed in the table.
