HC Deb 27 June 1995 vol 262 c631W
25. Mr. Battle

To ask the Secretary of State for Education what percentage of 16-year-olds last year went on to study an A-level science subject. [29132]

Mr. Boswell

This information is not held centrally in the required form. In 1993, at the end of the academic year, 10.7 per cent. of 18-year-olds had at least one science GCE A-level compared with 8 per cent. in 1980.
