WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR EDUCATION, SPORT AND CULTURE
BY SENATOR S.C. FERGUSON
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 29th JANUARY 2013
Question
Would the Minister advise members of the length of residence in the Island of students studying at Highlands, broken down into the following age groups - those under 16; those between 16 and 18; and those over 18?
Answer
The Minister is currently unable to provide the precise data requested.
Highlands does not retain records that show the length of residency of individual students who have previously been educated in Jersey schools.
Full-time students aged over 16 who have not been educated in Jersey are required to provide length of residency and to meet additional criteria on application. This data is used to determine whether applicants qualify for free or subsidised tuition.
However, as this data is retained in individual records and not currently in an electronic format, it is not easily collated to provide the information requested by the Senator.
The current admissions procedures will be reviewed by the College and its governing body.
