HC Deb 04 July 1910 vol 18 c1469W
Mr. FETH ERSTONHAUGH

asked whether it is in accordance with the rules of the National Board of Education to refuse the training diploma to a teacher and to award to him or her the triennial increment of good service salary, though refusal of the training diploma leads to withdrawal of salary altogether, and apparently the merits which would entitle to triennial increment would seem a fortiori to entitle to the diploma?

Mr. BIRRELL

The conditions for earning an increment of good service salary are not so onerous as those for the award of a diploma, and a teacher may therefore be granted the former who is ineligible for the latter.
