§ 12. Sir P. Hannonasked the Minister of Education if his attention has been called to the experiment in remedial education which has been established in the Institute of Education in Birmingham University; and what steps he is taking to have this experiment tried out in Institutes of Education in other Universities.
§ Mr. TomlinsonYes, Sir. I have been kept informed of this very interesting experiment and have given it every encouragement, but I prefer to leave to other institutes of education the responsibility for considering whether it should be repeated elsewhere.
§ Sir P. HannonDoes not the Minister think that this experiment ought to be extended to other modern universities throughout the country; and is it not very unfortunate that this example should not be followed by other educational bodies?
§ Mr. TomlinsonI should like it to run a little longer before I come to any decision on whether or not I personally would recommend it.
