Answer
No detailed data regarding the current Transfer Test are available until the process has been completed and the results issued to the Education and Library Boards. These data will be available in February 2008 and will be provided to you as soon as they become available for release.
Free school meal entitlement data for each primary and preparatory school are currently available for the 2007/08 academic year. These data have not been provided but as soon as the Transfer Test data become available, free school meal entitlement data will also be provided.
