HC Deb 11 January 1994 vol 235 cc77-80W
Dr. Lynne Jones

To ask the Secretary of State for Education what information he has on changes in(a) the number of senior non-teaching posts in further education colleges and (b) salaries of principals and senior staff, so designated by the instruments and articles of government in further education colleges in each of the last five years; and whether such information will be collected in future as a prerequisite for securing funding from the Further Education Funding Council.

Mr. Boswell

The Department does not collect information on numbers of staff in non-teaching posts, except where those posts are filled by staff employed on academic-research pay scales. Average salaries of principals of further education colleges in England in each of the four years up to 1991, the latest year for which figures are available, are shown in the table. Comparable figures for vice-principals and other heads of departments for years up to 1990 are also given; similar information for these groups is not available for 1991 because these posts were transferred to a new "Management spine" from April 1990.

Average salary (£) at 31 March

Principals 28,030 29,820 32,980 39,120
Vice-Principals 24,750 26,400 28,810
Other Heads of Department 21,800 23,030 24,980

Under the financial memorandum between the Further Education Funding Council and institutions in the new further education sector, which sets out terms and conditions for the payment of grant, institutions will be required to disclose in the notes to their accounts the salaries of all of their senior posts holders.
