HC Deb 20 October 1992 vol 212 cc265-6W
17. Mr. Clappison

To ask the Secretary of State for Education what additional information will be made available to parents from the autumn term this year as a result of the measures contained in the parents charter.

Mr. Forth

For the first time, comparative tables of public examination results will be published this November for each local education authority area. They will cover all maintained schools and those independent schools which are participating this year on a voluntary basis, alongside local and national average figures.
