HC Deb 17 March 1955 vol 538 c1454
54. Mr. G. Longden

asked the Minister of Education whether he is satisfied that Circular 280 has been sufficiently observed in all areas to ensure a reduction of the size of infant school classes of all local education authorities; and whether he will consider further measures.

Sir D. Eccles

So far as I know, authorities are observing the terms of this circular. The size of primary classes is expected to decline as a result of additional teachers, more school buildings, and fewer children under 11.
