Private Education
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many and what proportion of children were privately educated in each of the last five years.
Answered by Stephen Morgan
Education is a devolved matter, and the response outlines the information for England only.
The department publishes information on the number and proportion of children in England who attended independent schools in each of the last five years in the annual ‘Schools, pupils and their characteristics’ accredited official statistics publication here: https://explore-education-statistics.service.gov.uk/find-statistics/school-pupils-and-their-characteristics/2024-25.
