HC Deb 07 March 1928 vol 214 c1148W
Mr. COVE

asked the President of the Board of Education the number of classes over 50 but not over 60, and the number of classes over 60, in Manchester, Liverpool, the West Riding, Birmingham, Sheffield, and London, respectively, in each of the three years 1924–25, 1925–26, and 1926–27, discriminating between classes which contain only pupils under 11 years of age and others?

Lord E. PERCY

The following table shows the numbers of classes over 50 in the areas in question. The figures in brackets indicate the number of classes over 60 and are included in the figures relating to classes over 50.

Lord E. PERCY

I am afraid that the particulars for which my hon. and gallant Friend asks will take some little time to put together, but I will send him such information as is available as soon as possible.
