I have been looking at figures regarding public school funding in Lambeth and in other London boroughs. Part of the funding is determined by number of pupils. Elm Wood School and Rosendale School, as well as other schools in Lambeth, are over-subscribed and are studying long term expansion plans. My belief is that the implementation of housing benefit cuts will change all present estimates in terms of student population in all London boroughs and outside Greater London. Is this an issue being analyzed by Lambeth?
