§ Mr. Win GriffithsTo ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will list the schools in Wales which select pupils, giving the percentage selected in each school, and the criteria and procedures under which selection by each school is made. [9479]
§ Mr. RichardsIn the maintained sector, admission arrangements, including the criteria by which decisions are to be made if a school is oversubscribed, must be published annually in the school's prospectus. I am not aware of any grant-maintained school that selects pupils on the basis of ability or aptitude. Information about local education authority maintained schools is not held centrally.
