Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what estimate she has made of the number of parliamentary constituencies in England that have no further education institution that provides A-Levels.

We do not hold data for further education (FE) institutions not providing A Levels by parliamentary constituency.

From the Single Individualised Learner Record for the 2015/16 academic year, there were 280 parliamentary constituencies where there were no learners participating in A Level courses in FE institutions based on the delivery location.

It is important to note that this does not include A level provision in school sixth forms. There are significantly more school sixth forms than FE institutions providing A levels.
