HC Deb 08 August 1901 vol 99 c53
MR. EVELYN CECIL (Aston Manor)

I beg to ask the Vice-President of the Committee of Council on Education whether the proposed organisation of secondary education will include the efficient control and regulation of pupil teacher centres by the new education authority; and whether he will state by what authority school boards are permitted by the Board of Education to provide secondary education for pupil teachers employed in their own schools, and more particularly for pupil teachers employed in schools conducted by other bodies.

THE VICE-PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF EDUCATION (Sir J. GORST, Cambridge University)

I cannot pledge the Government to the contents of the Education Bill of next year. I understand the sections of the Education Act of 1870 relied on by school boards are 19 and 35.
