A comparison of the position in 2005 and 2010, showing the net change in capacity in Bradford local authority, 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 over-supply, remove unsuitable place provision, or if restructuring the school system. Bradford, like many LAs, reduced the number of available school places during the previous decade when the primary population was falling by removing surplus places, with the objective of improving efficiency.<\/p>
