§ Mr. HardyTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will list the standard spending assessments of each local education authority as a sum per head of population together with the proportion of the local population which represents the number of children in full-time education to the age of 16 years.
§ Mr. Robin SquireThe figures for (i) education standard spending assessment in pounds per head and (ii) the number of children in full-time education between the ages of five and 15 expressed as a proportion of total population are given in the table. SSAs do not include pupils below the age of five and pupils aged 16 are not separately identifiable as they are included in the 16 plus education SSA element.
