HC Deb 23 June 1960 vol 625 c59W
56. Mrs. White

asked the Minister of Education if he will name the additional day training colleges for mature students, with the proposed dates of opening and the number of places at each.

Sir D. Eccles

In addition to those already in operation at Manchester and Leeds, day training colleges are to be opened at Brentwood, Essex, for 240 places; at Swinton, Yorkshire West Riding, for 200–250 places; and at Chorley, Lancashire, for 180–200 places. All these colleges are planned to open in January, 1961.

It is hoped to open other day training colleges by the same date in London, the West Midlands and Tyneside.
