HC Deb 15 March 1912 vol 35 c1498W
Mr. TYSON WILSON

asked the President of the Board of Education, if he is aware that a Mr. Bradford, who is an assistant master at the London County Council's Monson Road schools, is also head of a firm known as the Emanda Electric Company, whose works are at New Cross, S.E.; and whether, in acting in this dual capacity, Mr. Bradford is complying with the regulations and customs of the Board of Education?

Mr. J. A. PEASE

I understand that the facts are as stated in the first part of the question. Under Article 15 of the Code a local education authority would be within its rights in objecting to a teacher undertaking occupations outside the school hours which would interfere with the due performance of his duties as a teacher. The matter is one which is primarily within the province of the local education authority.
