HC Deb 10 July 1930 vol 241 cc607-8
39. Mr. ALPASS

asked the President of the Board of Education whether he has sanctioned the scheme for the provision of a new council school at Shirehampton, Bristol?

Sir C. TREVELYAN

Plans for the provision of a new junior school to serve the Shirehampton district were approved in January last, and further plans for a new senior school in May. I am fully alive to the urgency of the need for the provision of additional accommodation in this district, and I have recently communicated with the local education authority emphasising the need for expedition in dealing with the matter.
