§ 24. Mr. R. MORRISONasked the President of the Board of Education whether it is still the policy of the Board to limit handicraft classes to 20 boys; and if he can state the number of classes which exceed this number?
§ Lord E. PERCYThe Board's policy is still to restrict classes in manual work to 20. This number may be sometimes exceeded owing to temporary difficulties of accommodation, staffing or organisation. I am unable to give the number of classes exceeding 20, but I have no reason to think that they are at all numerous. If the hon. Member has any specific cases in mind, I shall be happy to look into them.
