HC Deb 29 January 1991 vol 184 c449W
Mr. Dykes

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will give the per capita expenditure figures for primary and secondary schools in the London borough of Harrow, for the latest date available, of spending per pupil, and the relative figures at constant prices in 1979–80.

Mr. Fallon

Figures for nursery and primary schools are no longer collected separately. Harrow spent £465 per nursery and primary pupil in 1979–80 and £1,115 in 1988–89, the latest year for which figures are available. It spent £745 per secondary pupil in 1979–80 and £1,740 in 1988–89. At 1988–89 prices those figures are £880 and £1,115 respectively for nursery and primary schools, and £1,405 and £1,740 respectively for secondary schools.
