HC Deb 02 June 1924 vol 174 c900W
Mr. HANNON

asked the President of the Board of Education whether he can state approximately what percentage of children fail to secure employment within three months of leaving school?

Mr. TREVELYAN

The information in the possession of the Board of Education and the Ministry of Labour does not enable any reliable figure to be stated, and to give even a general estimate would entail an extensive and difficult investigation.
