HC Deb 27 May 1971 vol 818 c198W
Mr. Gurden

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science how many new school places she estimates will be provided for the future intake of immigrant children allowed into Birmingham as dependants during 1971.

Mrs. Thatcher

Additional classrooms at three primary schools in Handsworth were taken into use in January. By September, 1972, six new primary schools as well as extensions to some existing schools are expected to be ready for occupation in areas of the city with large numbers of children of overseas parentage.
