Answer:

[tex]\boxed{26 pupils}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Girls for English:

20 + English + 12 = 36

English + 32 = 36

English = 36-32

English = 4 (For girls)

Total for Science:

12+7 = 19

Total for English:

25 + English + 19 = 70

English + 44 = 70

English = 70-44

English = 26 pupils
