HC Deb 29 July 1910 vol 19 cc2671-2W
Mr. ARMITAGE

asked the President of the Board of Education if he will state the number of voluntary schools that were closed during each of the school years 1903–4 to 1908–9, both inclusive; and if he will state the number of schools closed during that period under the following heads: Church of England, Roman Catholic, Wesleyan, Jewish, British, and others?

Mr. RUNCIMAN

I must refer my hon. Friend to the answer I gave on 18th March to the hon. Member for the Hallam Division of Sheffield, which I hope will satisfy him.
