§ Dr. GodmanTo ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland if he will list the fee-paying schools which have received funds under(a) the targeting social needs scheme and (b) the raising school standards initiative, indicating the amounts received in each of the past three years and the sums forecast to be paid in 1997–98; and if he will make a statement. [15108]
§ Mr. AncramFees in Northern Ireland's voluntary grammar schools are, with two exceptions, limited to a maximum capital fee of £80. All voluntary grammar schools receive some level of assistance from targeting social needs resources, on the principle that money follows the pupils eligible for free school meals. The amount going to voluntary grammar schools represents only 4 per cent. of the funds allocated under the scheme.
The table lists the sums received by each voluntary grammar school.
