§ Mr. Hilary BennTo ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment (1) if he will publish a copy of the questionnaire used by Ofsted inspectors in seeking 421W the views of schools on the effectiveness of their local education authority as part of the local education authority inspection process; [107621]

(3) if he will make available to any local education authority that requests it a copy of the summary analysis of the questionnaire results showing schools' views of their local education authority as part of the Ofsted inspection process. [107623]
§ Ms Estelle MorrisCopies of the questionnaire seeking the views of schools on the effectiveness of their local education authority as part of the local education authority inspection process are available from: the LEA Inspections Team, the Audit Commission, 1 Vincent Square, London SW1 2PN. I have also placed a copy in the Libraries of the House.
A copy of the summary analysis of the school survey results is given to the local education authority by the inspection team during the inspection. Further copies will be supplied to the authority on request by the Audit Commission.
No up-to-date summary analysis of the school survey results for all local education authorities inspected by Ofsted and the Audit Commission to date exists at present. This is a matter for Her Majesty's Chief Inspector of Schools, Chris Woodhead. I have asked him to write to my hon. Friend and to place a copy of his letter in the Libraries.
