HC Deb 13 May 1908 vol 188 cc1138-9
SIR GEORGE WHITE (Norfolk, N.W.)

I beg to ask the President of the Board of Education whether he will publish, uniform with the List of Public Elementary Schools in Single-School Parishes (Cd. 3990), a list of schools in parishes where there is only one public elementary school available for boys, or for girls, or for infants, but which are not single-school parishes as defined by Section 3 of the Elementary Education (England and Wales) Bill, 1908, because the departments for boys, girls, or infants are in separate buildings and are recognised by the Board of Education as separate schools.

I beg also to ask the President of the Board of Education whether he will publish, in continuation of the List of Public Elementary Schools in Single-School Parishes (Cd. 3990), a similar list of schools which would be in single school parishes as defined by Section 3 of the Elementary Education (England and Wales) Bill, 1908, but for the fact that the parish is an urban district or municipal borough, and therefore technically is not a rural parish as mentioned in that section.

MR. RUNCIMAN

Yes, Sir; I am having Papers prepared giving the information asked for in these Questions, so far as the Board are able to supply it, and they will be laid on the Table as soon as possible.
