HC Deb 13 March 1929 vol 226 c1139W
Mr. JOHNSTON

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he is aware that the continuation class in navigation at Stornoway has 38 pupils; and what is the maximum number of pupils usually allowed to one teacher in such subjects?

Sir J. GILMOUR

The particulars furnished in respect of this class showed an enrolment of 35 pupils at 23rd February, 1929. I have no later information. In terms of Article 7 of the Code of Regulations for Continuation Classes, 1926, the number in habitual attendance must not exceed 40.
