HC Deb 24 July 1891 vol 356 c308
MR. T. ELLIS

I beg to ask the Vice President of the Committee of Council on Education whether the Education Department, in conjunction with the Department of Science and Art, will issue annually a Report of the progress, condition, inspection, and the possibilities of the development of advanced elementary and higher grade schools in England and Wales?

SIR W. HART DYKE

Some of this information is already contained in the Reports of the Science and Art Department, and I will see what more can be given with the present staff and arrangements; but so far as the Education Department is concerned, there would be a difficulty in differentiating schools on any definite basis, and I do not think much can be done, in the direction suggested, until further progress is made with the organisation of secondary education.
