§ 29. Mr. DykesTo ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment if she will make a statement on the performance of maintained schools in the Harrow East division of the London borough of Harrow in respect of the league table system and exam and assessment measurements. [16083]
§ Mrs. GillanThe 1996 secondary school performance tables show that 53 per cent. of pupils attending the six maintained secondary schools in East Harrow obtained five or more A*-C GCSE grades, against an England average of 44.5 per cent. National curriculum assessment results are not published centrally for individual schools, although key stage 2 results will be published shortly in the primary school performance tables.
