Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many new places at (a) primary and (b) secondary schools have been created in Fareham constituency in the last 12 months.

Answer

The Department for Education collects information from local authorities on the number of school places in state-funded primary and secondary schools, except special schools, as part of the annual School Capacity Collection. The most recent data available relates to the position at May 2013 and is published online at: www.gov.uk/government/publications/school-capacity-academic-year-2012-to-2013.

Data on the number of school places for the past 12 months is not yet available as this information is currently being collected from local authorities and will be published in due course. The information is not available at constituency level.

Between May 2012 and May 2013, the number of places in primary schools in Hampshire increased by 585 and the number of places in secondary schools increased by 176.
