Abstract

Examines the effects of falling rolls in Manchester primary schools both on the catchments and on the intake of the secondary schools in the city. Various formulations of the transportation model in linear programming are used to evaluate the scheme by the Education Authority for linking primary schools to particular secondary schools. A second analysis evaluates recent proposals by the Authority to reduce both the number and the size of secondary schools in the city.-from Authors
