Medical/Dental
Students
Mr.
Drew: To ask the Secretary of State for
Health how many (a) medical and (b) dental students
enrolled in each admitting institution in each year since 1997; how
many staff were employed expressed (i) as a number of posts and (ii) as
full-time equivalents; and what the staff to student ratio was in each
year.
[86401]
Beverley
Hughes: I have been asked to
reply.
The available
figures are given in the tables. The figures include enrolments and
staff at those English higher education institutions which offer
medicine and dentistry courses. The Department does not calculate
student staff ratios for individual higher education institutions or
subjects. The available data does not allow us to identify, and exclude
from the calculation, the amount of time staff spend teaching further
education (as opposed to higher education) courses, and the number of
students who are taught at other institutions under franchising
arrangements. These factors have to be excluded from the calculation in
order to produce an SSR purely for higher education provision in higher
education institutions. We are therefore unable to produce individual
HEI SSRs which are accurate and comparable across all institutions. An
SSR for all HE institutions in England as a whole, which excludes time
spent on FE teaching and students taught via franchising, is published
annually by the Department. In 2004-05, the staff student ratio for
English institutions as a whole (excluding the Open University) was
18.2.
