<p>My Rt. hon Friend, the Secretary of State, has made a priority of visiting schools
and colleges located in deprived areas. Almost two thirds of the schools and colleges
the Secretary of State for Education, Michael Gove, has visited since 2010, are located
in the 50% most deprived areas of England according to the 2010 Index of Multiple
Deprivation. This does not include political or constituency visits.</p><p> </p><p>It
is not possible to say on how many occasions officials from the Department have visited
schools in this group, as this information is not readily available and could be obtained
only at disproportionate cost.</p><p> </p>
