Schools: Birkenhead
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, which schools in Birkenhead have expanded their intake without undertaking a public consultation in the last five years.
- Answer
-
The information requested is not held centrally. The Department does not collect information relating to the published admissions numbers of individual schools.
All school admission authorities must set a published admissions number (PAN). This is the number of pupils the school will admit at their normal point of entry, for example, to the reception year of a primary school.
Admission authorities are not required to consult before increasing their PAN. They must, however, notify the local authority of any intention to do so.
