HC Deb 01 April 1926 vol 193 cc2353-4
7. Captain GARRO-JONES

asked the President of the Board of Education how many compulsorily retired teachers have failed to qualify for pension under the Teachers Superannuation Act?

The PRESIDENT of the BOARD of EDUCATION (Lord Eustace Percy)

I am not clear to what the hon. and gallant Member refers by the expression "compulsorily retired." I have no record of the number of teachers who had not, by the age of 65, completed a sufficient number of years' service to be eligible for pension benefits under the School Teachers (Superannuation) Acts, 1918–1924.
