HC Deb 22 May 1919 vol 116 cc611-2W
Mr. W. R. SMITH

asked the President of the Board of Education (1) whether he will make inquiries as to the sanitary condition of the elementary school at Terrington St. Clement, Norfolk, and as to whether the school is overcrowded so as to be prejudicial to the health of the children;

(2) Whether he is aware that at Terrington St. Clement, Norfolk, a number of children are unable to attend school through being outside the three-mile limit and the absence of any conveyance to take them to school; and, if so, will he take steps whereby these children can receive the education necessary for their future well-being?

Mr. FISHER

I will have inquiries made into the condition of the three elementary schools at Terrington St. Clement, and also into the question of the sufficiency of the school accommodation for this large parish. The information in my possession does not suggest that any of the three schools are likely to be overcrowded.
