View answer512 Mr. Eoin Ryan asked the Minister for Education and Science the number of pupils who sat their leaving certificate in the Dublin south west parts of Dublin 6W, 12 and 24, each year, from 1996 to 2006. [7537/07]
View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 507 and 512 together.
Data relating to school retention for individual schools or in schools in a particular local area such as Dublin postal district are not made available separately by my Department due to my concerns about the way such information might be used to create school league tables with a detrimental effect on educational equality and a balanced approach to all dimensions of learning.
