HC Deb 09 March 1922 vol 151 cc1501-2W
Lord H. CAVENDISH-BENTINCK

asked the President of the Board of Education whether the proposed increase of the number of scholars per teacher in the elementary schools will render superfluous any of the teachers in those schools?

Mr. FISHER

I do not propose to alter Article 14 of the Code. The question whether any teachers at present employed in schools are superfluous is one which can only be decided on consideration of the relevant circumstances of each school.
