Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, if she will publish a list of free schools indicating how many children have been enrolled at each school and how many pupils are funded at each school.
Schools funding data are published annually. This includes data on the number of pupils funded by type of school, so free schools can be identified. The number of pupils enrolled is included in the Census data return, also published annually. The data can be accessed on GOV.UK:
