Specialised Diplomas

Mr. Stephen O'Brien: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills what employment areas will be covered by the specialised diplomas for young people; and when she expects diplomas in each employment area will be available throughout England. [3050]

Jacqui Smith: I have asked the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority to provide by 8 July advice on the delineation of lines for specialised diplomas, which should cover all the main occupational sectors of the economy. I am committed to making rapid progress and, as set out in the White Paper "14–19 Education and Skills", I expect to have the first four lines available nationwide by 2008 and all the lines available nationally by 2015. My officials will be working with the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority to set the earliest possible timetable for full implementation which does not compromise the stability of the delivery system or place an unmanageable burden on institutions.

Student Grants

Mr. Allen: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills what information her Department has distributed to secondary school pupils on the restoration of student grants. [2868]

Bill Rammell: A key part of our communications campaign has been to get information into schools (including secondary schools) and sixth form colleges either directly or via student advisers and key influencers, who our research tells us are the prime sources of information for students and their parents.

This has been undertaken via a number of different channels. For instance, we have provided advisers packs—including a CD ROM, briefing notes and other

material—to every school or college student advisor, as well as sending customised information to all UCAS co-ordinators.

We aim to continue with this approach.

Sarah Teather: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills how many (a) full-time teachers, (b) part-time teachers and (c) teaching assistants there were in (i) each London borough and (ii) Brent East in each year since 1997. [2470]
