HC Deb 17 October 1994 vol 248 cc36-9W
Mrs. Gorman

To ask the Secretary of State for Education if she will show for each local education authority and for each year since 1988–89(a) the proportion of pupils resident in the authority but educated outside the authority, (b) the proportion of pupils resident outside the authority but educated within the authority and (c) the difference between (a) and (b), showing in each case whether the authority is a net exporter or net importer of pupils.

Mr. Robin Squire

In the table, column A the percentage of pupils belonging to the authority educated in another local education authority; column B shows pupils from elsewhere educated in an authority as a percentage of pupils resident and educated within the authority; and column C the difference. The figures are based on pupils attending maintained schools, other than sixth-form colleges; and pupils attending independent schools or receiving education otherwise than at school, under arrangements made by local education authorities. The figures are for January 1993; the information requested for other years could be provided only at disproportionate cost.
