MR. MORRKLL (Oxfordshire, Woodstock)To ask the Secretary to the Board of Education whether the system still prevails under which the attendances of children under three years old are to be separately registered so as to be taken into account in calculating accommodation and also in determining the teaching staff' required, but are not to be taken into account in calculating the grant; and, if so, whether he will now consider an adjustment of the grant to meet the case.
(Answered by Sir William Anson.) Children under three years of age are allowed to attend school, but their attendances are not registered for any purpose. Under' these circumstances the Question put in the last paragraph does not appear to arise.
