§ Mr. MYERSasked the President of the Board of Education the average percentage increase in pay in the lowest and highest grades of teachers for 1919–20 as compared win 1913–14?
§ Mr. FISHERThe average salaries paid to certificated and uncertificated teachers in ordinary public elementary schools in 1913–14 are set out in the White Paper [Cd. 8513] presented to Parliament in 1917, of which I am sending the hon. Member a copy. The Board have not yet received full particulars as to the salaries for the year 1919–20. I may, however, refer the hon. Member to the Report of the Standing Joint Committee on Elementary Teachers' Salaries [Cd. 443], which recommends minimum scales of salary. These recommendations have, I believe, been adopted by all, except three, of those authorities whose scales were not already higher.
