asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what contribution to teaching is made by microcomputers in (a) secondary schools and (b) primary schools.

The contribution microcomputers can make is large: I am sending my hon. Friend the reports of the subject associations which illustrate what can be done, both in primary and secondary schools.

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what information he has as to the use made by schools of microcomputers.

My Department has recently published a survey on this, a copy of which is in the Library.
