Mr. Hardy

To ask the Secretary of State for Education if she will estimate the total loss of jobs among teachers and school support staffs which is currently expected in 1995–96.

Under the arrangements for local management, decisions about school staffing levels are made by school governors on the basis of a variety of local factors. No central estimate is made.
