HC Deb 07 August 1913 vol 56 cc1752-3
72. Mr. ELLIS DAVIES

asked the President of the Board of Agriculture whether his attention has been drawn to the fact that, owing to dissatisfaction with the form of religious instruction given at. Thorpe schools, Surrey, over twenty children are taken daily to St. Ann's Heath council schools; whether there is only one school at Thorpe; and whether the cost of the conveyance of the children will be borne by the parents or the education authority?

Mr. PEASE

There is only one school in the civil parish of Thorpe. I have no information as to the other matters referred to in the question, but will communicate with the local education authority.
