HC Deb 10 July 1930 vol 241 c647W
Duchess of ATHOLL

asked the President of the Board of Education how many of the two-year and three-year trained teachers, respectively, who finished their training in the summer of 1929 were unemployed on 31st March, 1930?

Sir C. TREVELYAN

Of the training college students who finished their training in the summer of 1929, 404 were reported to the college authorities as not having obtained teaching posts by the end of that year. I regret that the figures for March, 1930, are not available, and that I have no figures distinguishing the students according to the length of the course which they followed. The above figures do not cover university training departments, which do not normally provide two-year or three-year courses.
