§ 11. Mr. Russell Johnstonasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what further measures he proposes to take to encourage uncertificated teachers to become certificated.
§ Mr. MillanMy right hon. Friend is awaiting the advice of the General Teaching Council for Scotland which, with his approval, set up a Working Party in November, 1966 to deal urgently with the problem of uncertificated teachers.
§ Mr. JohnstonI welcome the survey, but is the Minister aware that there can be cases where an uncertificated teacher suffers a severe drop in income by becoming certificated?
§ Mr. MillanI would be very interested to see cases of that sort and we should certainly look at them. We are very anxious that the whole problem of uncertificated teachers should be dealt with.
