Question to the Department for Education:

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Baroness Smith of Malvern on 28 April (HL6277), how many pupils were attending the 20 schools referred to.

The information is available on Get Information about Schools and shows these schools had over 1,500 pupils.

Overall pupil numbers at these schools combined were only at 51% of the combined capacity of these schools in January 2024 - before details of tax changes were announced. Low pupil numbers relative to capacity can be a risk factor associated with subsequent closure.
