HC Deb 13 June 1996 vol 279 c280W
Mr. Duncan

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment if she will publish lists comparing the most recent general certificate of secondary education results of grant-maintained schools in England and Wales with the results of the same schools in the years before they went grant maintained. [32088]

Mr. Robin Squire

The data are contained in a number of lists, copies of which have been placed in the Library. The lists give details of the GCSE results for grant-maintained schools in England for 1994–95 with their results for the most recent year before they became grant maintained. No previous results for schools that were grant maintained in 1992 are available since 1992 was the first year of the school performance tables. The information on grant-maintained schools in Wales is the responsibility of my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Wales.
