HC Deb 25 November 1926 vol 200 c562W
Mr. MORGAN JONES

asked the President of the Board of Education the number of trained certificated teachers who were unemployed on 1st November in the years 1924, 1925, and 1926, respectively?

Lord E. PERCY

The information asked for is not available. From returns furnished by the training colleges in December, 1925, it appears that out of 6,900 students who left training colleges in July, 1924, and about whom the college authorities possessed information, 195 had at that date failed to obtain posts, and that out of 6,845 students who left college in July, 1925, and about whom information was available, 431 had failed to obtain posts.
