HC Deb 03 May 1900 vol 82 cc590-1
MR. TREVELYAN (Yorkshire, W.R., Elland)

I beg to ask the Vice-President of the Committee of Council on Education whether the Department has received information, in reference to the Burley-in-Wharfedale Wesleyan day schools, of the solvency of the schools and their capacity to maintain an adequate annual subscription; and whether, in view of the fact that more than half the children of the neighbourhood are being, and have been for eighteen months, educated at these schools, the Department proposes to continue to delay paying the grant.

THE VICE-PRESIDENT OF THE COMMITTEE OF COUNCIL ON EDUCATION (Sir J. GORST, Cambridge University)

The school in question will now be put on the Annual Grant list.
