HC Deb 07 November 1911 vol 30 c1476
Sir PHILIP MAGNUS

asked the President of the Board of Education whether he could grant a Return of the salaries paid to assistant masters in all State-aided secondary schools, giving the minimum and maximum salaries where scale salaries are in force?

Mr. J. PEASE

The Board of Education have for some time past been giving special attention to the question of expenditure in secondary schools, especially as regards salaries, and have been collecting information on the subject with a view to the issue of a series of statistical tables. The information, which will include figures both with regard to head masters and assistants and girls' schools as well as boys, will, it is hoped, be ready for publication in a week's time and will contain the figures asked for by the hon. Member.

Sir P. MAGNUS

Will the Return contain comparative figures?

Mr. J. PEASE

I cannot say without notice. I understand that the figures will be as complete as they can possibly be made.
