§ Mr. SPENCERasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Education what action he is prepared to take following upon the representations made to him as to the desirability of separating the matriculation and school certificate examinations?
§ Mr. RAMSBOTHAMI am not yet in a position to make any statement on this point. I take it that my hon. Friend has principally in mind the recent report of the panel of investigators appointed by the Secondary School Examinations Council, and I may explain that the Board desire in the first instance to give the various interests concerned an opportunity of considering the suggestions there made and of expressing their views on them.
