question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how much was spent per pupil on improving the condition of school buildings in (a) Barnsley East constituency and (b) the UK on average in each year since 2010.
tabling member constituency	Barnsley East
tabling member printed	Stephanie Peacock
uin	2655
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/07/2017 answer text <p>The Department for Education does not hold data on condition funding for schools by constituency, and has responsibility for schools in England only. The Department has allocated over £9 billion in school condition funding nationally from 2011-12 to 2017-18. Allocations total £1.4 billion a year in every year from 2011-12 to 2017-18. In addition, the £4.4 billion Priority School Rebuilding Programme is rebuilding or refurbishing those school buildings in the worst condition across the country.</p><p>Barnsley East is part of Barnsley local authority, which received condition funding (including Devolved Formula Capital, provided directly to schools) of over £24 million from the 2011-12 to 2017-18 financial years, an average of £3.5 million per year. This totals £4.7 million in 2011-12, £4.1 million in 2012-13, £3.5 million in 2013-14, £2.7 million in 2014-15, £2.8 million in 2015-16, £3.4 million in 2016-17 and £3.5 million in 2017-18. Local authorities decide how allocations are distributed to maintained schools in their areas. These amounts do not include allocations made to academies in the area. As academy trusts often allocate funding across local-authority boundaries, it is not possible to calculate condition funding per pupil for a local area.</p><p>Details on current and future school condition allocations are published here: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/capital-allocations" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/capital-allocations</a>.</p><p>A breakdown of Devolved Formula Capital funding by institution is available for 2017-18: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/capital-allocations" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/capital-allocations</a>.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb question first answered 24/07/2017 17:57:24 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb

question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Education, with reference to the Answer of 14 January 2013, Official Report, column 533W, on teachers: qualifications, how many people have obtained each type of school-based qualification in (a) music, (b) drama, (c) theatre-studies and (d) art in each year since 2009-10.
tabling member constituency	Kingston upon Hull North
tabling member printed	Diana Johnson
uin	2651
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/08/2017 answer text <p>The number and percentage of pupils at the end of Key Stage 4 achieving[1] each type of school based qualification in (a) Music, (b) Drama, (c) Theatre studies and (d) Art for the years 2013/14 - 2015/16 are shown in the attached table. Drama and Theatre Studies are grouped together as part of the school performance tables and are therefore presented together in the data.</p><p> </p><p>The percentages of the total GCSE cohort entered for each subject are included in the attached table. The GCSE cohort is defined as all pupils who entered at least one GCSE subject and consists of 603,305 pupils in 2013/14, 597,477 pupils in 2014/15 and 584,013 pupils in 2015/16.</p><p> </p><p>Caution should be taken when interpreting the ‘percentage of GCSE cohort entered for Art/Music/Drama &amp; Theatre Studies’. GCSE Art, Music and Drama &amp; Theatre studies are categories comprising more than one subject and a pupil may have been entered for multiple subjects, whereas, the GCSE cohort figures relate to individual pupils. Therefore, this figure slightly over-estimates the number of pupils entering these subject areas.</p><p>Data for the years 2009/10 – 2012/13 are not provided because collating this information is complex due to changes in the school performance tables and a lack of published content prior to 2012[2], therefore producing this data would incur a disproportionate cost.</p><p>The number of entries to the requested subjects, and grades achieved, is published at school level as part of the ‘Key Stage 4 performance tables’ underlying data[2].</p><p>Caution should also be used when comparing this data with that provided on 14 January 2013, Official Report, column 533W[3] due to methodological changes in the intervening years.</p><p> </p><p>[1] ‘Achievement’ (or a pass) has been defined as any result which does not count as a ‘Fail’ or ‘Ungraded’ for that particular qualification. For more information on the grading structures in place for the different qualifications noted, see the Ofqual register: <a href="https://register.ofqual.gov.uk/" target="_blank">https://register.ofqual.gov.uk/</a>.</p><p> </p><p>[2] This data is available for download from: <a href="https://www.compare-school-performance.service.gov.uk/download-data" target="_blank">https://www.compare-school-performance.service.gov.uk/download-data</a> by selecting the year you require and downloading ‘Key stage 4 qualification and subject data’ for that year.</p><p>[3] <a href="https://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm201213/cmhansrd/cm130114/text/130114w0003.htm" target="_blank">https://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm201213/cmhansrd/cm130114/text/130114w0003.htm</a>.</p> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb question first answered 14/08/2017 17:08:41 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb attachment 1 file name 2651 Table.docx title 2651_table
