Mr. Brady

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills if he will list schools with sixth forms for which the provisional funding for their sixth form for the next financial year would be lower than that for the current year, giving the(a) cash value and (b) percentage of the reduction in each case.[102153]

Mr. Miliband

[holding answer 10 March 2003]: The Learning and Skills Council has now announced finalised sixth form allocations for the 2003–04 academic year. These will be used by local education authorities in calculating schools' budget shares for the financial year 2003–04. The allocations are primarily the responsibility of the LSC and John Harwood, the Chief Executive, will write to the hon. Member and a copy of his letter will be placed in the House of Commons Library.
