Parliamentary Spokesman ANDREW PERCY says, "I am sure many local parents will be shocked to discover that last year the East Riding received the fourth worst education grant in the country from this Labour government.
East Riding pupils received £3,800 per pupil compared to £4,160 per pupil in Hull. Obviously there are differing demands in different authorities but an average pupil in the East Riding receives £340 less than even the national average!"
