§ Mr. DonaldsonTo ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland how many female non-teaching primary school principals there are in(a) the South Eastern Education and Library Board area and (b) the Borough of Lisburn. [29945]
§ Mr. WorthingtonSince the introduction of the LMS funding arrangements, information in the form requested is not available. Under the Local Management of Schools arrangements, it is entirely a matter for the Board of Governors of each school how their annual delegated budget is spent on running the school. This includes the number of teachers to be employed and whether or not the school employs a non-teaching rather than a teaching principal.
