PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Higher Education: Wallasey (25 September 2019)

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many and what proportion of children in secondary schools in Wallasey eligible for free school meals went on to higher education in each year since 2010.

Asked by:
Dame Angela Eagle (Labour)

The information requested by constituency level is not readily available and could only be obtained at disproportionate cost.

The Department does publish the proportion of students who entered higher education by age 19 who were eligible for free school meals at age 15 in state-funded and special schools at a local authority level. This information is available here: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/widening-participation-in-higher-education-2018.
