<p>The Department for Education collects information from local authorities on the
number of school places in state-funded primary and secondary 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:</p><p> </p><p><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/school-capacity-academic-year-2012-to-2013"
target="_blank">www.gov.uk/government/publications/school-capacity-academic-year-2012-to-2013</a></p><p>
</p><p>Equivalent data for 2010 can be found at:</p><p> </p><p><a href="http://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/school-capacity-2009-to-2010-final"
target="_blank">www.gov.uk/government/statistics/school-capacity-2009-to-2010-final</a></p><p>
</p><p>Data to May 2014 will become available shortly.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>A
comparison of the position in 2010 and 2013, showing the net change in capacity, is
given in the table below. Positive figures indicate an overall increase in places;
negative figures indicate an overall decrease in places. A decrease in places can
be the consequence of actions to address oversupply and remove unsuitable place provision,
or of restructuring the school system. Figures for local authorities that have restructured
middle school provision or introduced all-through provision between 2010 and 2013
must be compared with caution.</p><p> </p><p>The Department does not collect capacity
data at constituency level; Basingstoke constituency lies within Hampshire local authority.</p><p>
