HC Deb 12 May 1909 vol 4 c1812
Mr. LEIF JONES (for Mr. Richardson)

asked the President of the Board of Education if he can state what size, the classes run to in the elementary schools in the city of Nottingham?

Mr. TREVELYAN

My right hon. Friend is not able to give precise information on this point, but he is aware that the number of classes in Nottingham public elementary schools, especially in council schools, containing more than 60 scholars on the roll is very considerable. The question of school accommodation in this area is a serious one, and the Board have for some time past been pressing the authority to provide additional accommodation.
