HC Deb 23 June 1992 vol 210 c122W
Mr. Cummings

To ask the Secretary of State for Education what discussions his Department is having concerning the most appropriate criteria to include in league tables when measuring schools' effectiveness.

Mr. Patten

Comparative tables will this year cover public examination results; next year we plan to include national curriculum assessment results, truancy rates and information about the educational and other routes taken by older pupils. We consulted widely on plans for 1992 and will do so again for 1993.
