HC Deb 06 March 1884 vol 285 c660
MR. COMPTON LAWRANCE

asked the Vice President of the Council, Whether the complaints of the managers and teachers of schools in South Lincolnshire have been considered by the Education Department; and, whether any action has been taken in the matter?

MR. MUNDELLA

The complaints referred to by the hon. Gentleman have been considered by the Education Department, and the senior Inspector of the Division has investigated them on the spot. Many of the complaints were undoubtedly justified, and the senior Inspector has made recommendations to the Department which, we trust, will remedy any injustice that has been done. We are satisfied that, with reasonable tact and discretion, such difficulties ought not to arise, and we are taking measures to prevent their recurrence.
