MORAL AND ETHICAL STANDARDS.

HC Deb 07 November 1929 vol 231 cc1233-4

53. Mr. THURTLE

asked the President of the Board of Education if the Reports of the inspectors of his Department indicate that there is any difference between the moral and ethical standards of the children attending the non-sectarian elementary schools and those of the children attending the sectarian elementary schools?

Sir C. TREVELYAN

No, Sir.

Mr. THURTLE

May we take it from that answer that the ethical and moral instruction in the public controlled schools is perfectly satisfactory?

Sir C. TREVELYAN

Yes.
