Mr. Dunn I shall reply to the hon. Member as soon as possible. Mr. Freud asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will list in the Official Report(a) for each local education authority the number and (b) for metropolitan counties, shire counties and London boroughs the average number of pupils with special needs educated in another local education authority and received from another local education authority at the latest date for which figures are available. Mr. Dunn Set out are, for each local education authority in England, the number of pupils as at January 1984 from outside the authority being educated in special schools within it, and the number of pupils from the authority being educated in special schools in other authorities. Corresponding averages for the metropolitan counties, shire counties and London boroughs, excluding ILEA, are also set out. The numbers of pupils with special needs receiving their education in primary, middle and secondary schools maintained by local education authorities other than that to which they are deemed to belong are not separately available.---------------------- | | ---------------------- |Barking | ---------------------- |Barnet | ---------------------- |Bexley | ---------------------- |Brent |
