HC Deb 26 March 1980 vol 981 cc568-9W
Mr. Freud

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science whether he will consider seeking to relax the raising of school leaving age legislation.

My right hon. and learned Friend is keeping under review the operation of the school arrangements which were last amended by the Education (School Leaving Dates) Act 1976. He has no present plans to change the law.
