§ 44. Dr. HASTINGSasked the President of the Board of Education how many of the 29 existing and 15 contemplated nursery schools are open-air schools; and whether he proposes to sanction any further nursery schools that are not of the open-air type?
§ Sir C. TREVELYANOf the 29 existing nursery schools, 23 are open-air schools and nearly all the others have good open-air facilities. The importance of securing the provision of a largely in creased number of nursery schools is so great that some latitude must be allowed, as, for example, where it is proposed to adapt an existing building for the purpose, but the majority of the new schools will be of the open-air type.
