Note:Since 1971-72 financial year capital funds for community and comprehensive schools have been provided from the same subhead. Accordingly it is not possible to extract readily a separate figure of expenditure in respect of each category. Prior to 1971-72 the expenditure relates entirely to comprehensive schools.
