§ 18. Dr. David Clarkasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will make a statement of his policies to encourage young people to remain in full-time education after the statutory school leaving age.
§ Mr. MacfarlaneThe number of young people staying on in full-time education 161W depends on a variety of factors, including whether they see it as improving their chances of obtaining employment. With this very much in mind, we are looking carefully at the provision that is made for them in schools and colleges of further education and in other ways.
