HC Deb 14 December 1925 vol 189 c985W
Mr. R. RICHARDSON

asked the President of the Board of Education whether he is aware of the prevailing tendency to confine the appointment to headships of secondary schools to members of the older universities, to the prejudice of many who have had to go to other universities more within their means; and whether he will obtain a return showing the number of persons from each of the universities who hold headships of secondary schools?

Lord E. PERCY

On the information before me I do not think that any such tendency exists, or that any useful purpose would be served by a return such as the hon. Member suggests.
