§ 35. Sir WILFRID SUGDENasked the President of the Board of Education if he is prepared to call a conference of representatives from education committees in industrial areas and commercial cities to consider the bearing of present regulations as to age attendance and curriculum in secondary schools, with a view to improving the present small quota passing from the elementary schools to the secondary schools in such areas and cities; and if he will take steps to introduce legislation on the basis of the recommendations of such conference?
§ The PRESIDENT of the BOARD of EDUCATION (Lord Eustace Percy)I am not quite clear what are the subjects into which the hon. Member wishes inquiry to be made. Perhaps he will confer with me on the subject.
