HC Deb 08 February 1926 vol 191 c639
94. Mr. TREVELYAN

asked the President of the Board of Education the reason for the Circular he has issued to the authorities of training colleges instructing them to restrict admissions to their colleges?

Lord E. PERCY

I have given no instructions to the authorities of training colleges to restrict admissions. Perhaps the right hon. Gentleman is referring to Circular 1373 of 23rd January last (a copy of which I am sending him), postponing the date for accepting applications for admission, in order to give time for the further consideration of the financial arrangements to be made for training colleges maintained by local education authorities.
