HC Deb 16 March 1905 vol 143 c197
DR. MACNAMARA

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Board of Education whether his attention has been called to the advertisement issued on behalf of the Devon Education Committee, for a certificated headmaster for Brendon, average about fifty, also supplementary teacher, Art. 68, salary £20 to £35, harmonium church, extra, choral service; and whether he will call the attention of the committee to Article 15 of the Education Code, which states that the teacher is not to be required to perform any duties except such as are connected with the work of the school.

THE PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY TO THE BOARD OF EDUCATION (Sir WILLIAM ANSON,) Oxford University

I have no information as to the case referred to by the hon. Member. The action of the Board in such cases must necessarily depend upon the circumstances of each particular case.

DR. MACNAMARA

Will the hon. Gentleman call the attention of the committee to the fact?

SIR WILLIAM ANSON

If the hon. Member will furnish me with the necessary information I will consider the matter.
