HC Deb 30 November 1945 vol 416 cc1873-4W
Mr. D. Jones

asked the Minister of Education what steps she proposes to take with local education authorities to encourage them to take action to establish parent-teacher associations.

Miss Wilkinson

I fully appreciate the importance and value of contact between the home and the school, which is emphasised in the official Handbook of Suggestions for Teachers. It would be unwise to try to impose a uniform system, but I hope that the many parent-teacher associations up and down the country will be extended still further.
