§ 36. Mr. WATSONasked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether a decision has yet been arrived at respecting the proposed transfer of students from the Dunfermline College of Hygiene and Physical Education; and whether, in view of the opposition the suggestion has aroused and the trouble and expense the establishment of the college has caused to the Carnegie Dunfermline Trust, he can see his way to continue the work of the college as at present?
§ Mr. WESTWOODIt has been decided that as from October next the men students shall receive their training at the Glasgow Training Centre, where the necessary provision is being made. As regards the women students, I understand that the question whether they should ultimately receive their training at Dunfermline, or elsewhere, is likely to be considered at an early date by the National Committee for the Training of Teachers in conference with the Carnegie Dunfermline Trustees, who act as managers of the college. In the meanwhile, steps are being taken for the appointment of a woman principal to supervise the training of the women students at Dunfermline.
