§ MR. RAIKESasked the Vice President of the Council, Whether, under the New Code, the attendance of children over seven years of age attending an Infant School can be reckoned in calculating the average attendance of such school?
§ MR. W. E. FORSTERsaid, in reply, that there was no strict rule to prevent the attendance of children over seven years of age in infant schools being reckoned in calculating the average attendance of such schools, although it was desirable that they should be draughted as soon as possible after that age into other schools, and instructions had been given to Inspectors to see that they were so draughted.
