Mrs. Bain
asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what is the expected per capita expenditure per student at English polytechnics in session 1975–76.
Mr. Mulley
The recurrent cost—excluding student support—for a polytechnic student in England and Wales in the financial year 1975–76 is estimated to be about £1,420 at November 1974 prices.
This figure averages the cost of all types and levels of course, with part-time students assessed as their full-time equivalent. A similar figure for English polytechnics alone is not readily available but would not vary greatly from that for England and Wales.
