Dr. Cable

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment what percentage of children currently educated in a care home with education establishment have a criminal juvenile record; and what is the percentage for each of the last three years. [59210]

Mr. Hutton

I have been asked to reply.

Information is collected centrally on the care histories of children who are looked after. However, this does not include information on a child's criminal record.
