HC Deb 16 March 1970 vol 798 cc52-3W
Mrs. Ewing

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many technical teachers have been recruited as a result of the special recruitment scheme for Scotland, broken down between local education authorities.

Mr. Ross

2,173 teachers of practical and aesthetic subjects have completed their training under the special recruitment scheme since its institution in 1951. It is not possible to distinguish those trained as teachers of technical subjects nor to give an analysis in terms of the education authorities in which they found employment.
