HC Deb 21 February 1924 vol 169 cc1994-5W
Mr. TURNER-SAMUELS

asked the President of the Board of Education whether he proposes to adopt the action of his predecessor in regard to uncertificated teachers, or whether he is considering any scheme whereby the effect of such a step to many persons engaged in the teaching profession may be averted, and particularly does he intend to continue the acting teacher's certificate examination?

Sir C. STARMER

asked the President of the Board of Education whether there is any intention of postponing the acting teachers' examination; and, if so, what other arrangements they propose to make?

Lieut.-Colonel HOWARD-BURY

asked the President of the Board of Education whether the acting teachers' certificate examinations are to be discontinued after this year; and whether he can see his way to continue them for a longer period or to put some other examination in their place?

Mr. TREVELYAN

I would refer the hon. Gentlemen to the reply I gave on the 14th February last to the hon. Members for Thornbury (Mr. Rendall) and Wednesbury (Mr. Short).
