Footnotes:-
(i) Table II is based on normal site costs and no allowance is
included for the extra cost of difficult sites.
(ii) These capital costs assume the continuance of the present
policies on ratios of capital assistance as between the Government and sponsors 80% - 20%, or 84% - 16% in the case of asymmetrical schools 7. In estate type schools. it has been assumed that the Government will bear the cost of the buildings, and that sponsors will pay for furniture and equipment.
(iii) By 1983, the correct proportions of 3 secondary grammar to 2 technical schools should have been achieved in the New Towns but not in the older urban areas, due to the existing preponderance of grammar type secondary schools.
(iv) It is proposed that the following new schools will be estate
type secondary schools to be built as part of the housing estates in the New Towns:-
(1) September 1974 - September 1976
6 Technical schools
(2) September 1976
September 1979
17 Technical schools
10 Grammar schools
9 Asymmetrical schools
(3) September 1979 - September 1983
21 Grammar type schools
33 Asymmetrical schools
Financial provision has already been included within the proposed overall block provision for the development of the New Towns for all the school buildings at (1) and (2), and for 39 of the schools at (3) above.

Recurrent Costs
Here also it is difficult to distinguish between those
costs which would have arisen under existing policies and those

September 1979, if the target figures of places are fully
achieved, there will be an enrolment in junior secondary forms
of about 282,000 and in senior secondary forms of about 86,000,
plus 12,960 places in Form VI. However, as 1979 will be the
end of the transitional period, during which enrolments in
schools will have been building up towards these target figures,
