HC Deb 07 March 1911 vol 22 c1184W
Mr. WEIR

asked the Lord Advocate whether the Scottish Education Department will consider the expediency of arranging for the teaching staff at the Grimshader public school, island of Lewis, to be strengthened, there being at present only one teacher to meet the requirements of fifty-five pupils?

Mr. URE

From the latest figures available as to average attendance of pupils at this school, it would appear that the requirements of the Code are satisfied, and it is understood that the School Board do not feel justified in going further at present.
