HC Deb 31 July 1964 vol 699 c443W
Mr. P. Williams

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science how many general certificate of education courses are being provided in Sunderland next September; and at which schools they will be provided.

Mr. Chataway

I understand from the local education authority that it cannot give precise information. The matter is at the head teacher's discretion and depends partly on the demand. The following schools at present run G.C.E. courses:

  • Monkwearmouth County Secondary School.
  • Hylton Red House County Secondary School.
  • Castle View County Secondary School.
  • Fulwell County Secondary School for Girls.
  • Bede County Secondary Grammar School for Boys.
  • Bede County Secondary Grammar School for Girls.
  • Southmoor County Technical School for Boys.
  • West Park County Technical School for Girls.
  • St. Joseph's Roman Catholic Secondary School.
  • St. Mary's Roman Catholic Secondary School.

In addition the following schools are hoping to offer G.C.E. courses in September:

  • Broadway County Secondary School.
  • Farringdon County Secondary School.
  • Thorney Close County Secondary School for Boys.
  • Thorney Close County Secondary School for Girls.
