§ Mr. Don FosterTo ask the Secretary of State for Education how many pupils who obtained five or more A to C or five or more A to G grades at GCSE one or more years before reaching the 15–year-old age group were no longer at the same school at the time of the January pupil count in 1993–94; and what percentage this is of all pupils gaining those grades.
§ Mr. Robin SquireDuring the preparation of the 1994 performance tables, the following information was provided by schools.
The number of 15-year-old pupils who obtained five or more A*–C grades at GCSE one or more years before reaching the 15-year-old age group, and who were no longer on the roll of the same school at the time of the January pupil count, was 203. This is 0.09 per cent. of all 840W be a further need for closure in the spring when the existing bridge is to be demolished. I am pleased that we have been able to avoid any day-time closures and to limit night-time closures to short periods in the quiet week after Christmas.
