HC Deb 03 April 1930 vol 237 cc1448-9
55. Sir N. GRATTAN-DOYLE

asked the President of the Board of Education whether he can state the number of uncertificated teachers, men and women, now in employment and the number of certificated teachers who are without educational posts?

Sir C. TREVELYAN

31,943 uncertificated teachers were in employment on the 31st March, 1929, the latest date for which figures are available. I regret that I have no information as to the number of unemployed certificated teachers.

Sir N. GRATTAN-DOYLE

Could not the right hon. Gentleman find out?

Sir C. TREVELYAN

It is impossible to find out.
