HC Deb 06 March 1930 vol 236 cc630-1
35. Miss LEE

asked the President of the Board of Education what steps are being taken to ensure that a sufficient number of additional teachers are being trained in preparation for the raising of the school-leaving age?

The PRESIDENT of the BOARD of EDUCATION (Sir Charles Trevelyan)

I would refer my hon. Friend to the replies which I gave on the 6th and 13th February in answer to similar questions by the hon. Members for South-West Bethnal Green (Mr. Harris) and East Lewisham (Sir A. Pownall), of which I am sending her copies.

Miss LEE

Do I understand that no additional means are being used?

Sir C. TREVELYAN

That is the nature of my reply.
