HC Deb 25 July 1929 vol 230 c1477
65. Dr. HASTINGS

asked the President of the Board of Education whether, in view of the poor quality of the education provided in certain private schools, he will consider the introduction of legislation for the compulsory inspection of all schools?

Sir C. TREVELYAN

I am aware of the disadvantage to many children attending private schools of the poor quality of the education given in them; but I am not yet clear what alteration in the law would be necessary to enforce a reasonable standard of efficiency.
