HC Deb 06 March 1893 vol 9 cc1083-4
SIR THOMAS ESMONDE

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland if the Commissioners of National Education will consider any case of special hardship to an assistant teacher which may arise in the application of the Rule as to the average attendance of children?

MR. J. MORLEY

The Commissioners invariably consider exceptional circumstances of a temporary nature in appling the Rule as to the average prescribed for assistant teachers, so as to avoid special hardship to individuals.
