Mr. Gordon Prentice: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment what criteria have to be met for registration as an
independent school; and how many have been so registered in each year since 1990. [143769]
Ms Estelle Morris: Any school in England at which full-time education is provided for five or more pupils of compulsory school age,
and which is not a school maintained by a local education authority or a non- maintained special school, must register as an
independent school. Initially registration is provisional. Final registration is conditional on inspection evidence that the
standards at the school meet the requirements of the Education Act 1996 in relation to accommodation, premises, instruction,
proprietor and staff, and child welfare in the case of a boarding school. The following table shows how many new schools registered,
and the total number of registered independent schools in England, in each year since 1990.
