§ Mr. WHITEasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Education if any estimate has been formed as to how many of the 1,100 teachers who left training colleges in July last, and who had failed to obtain employment as teachers on 31st December last, will obtain such employment during the next 12 months?
§ Mr. RAMSBOTHAM:Previous experience shows that the large majority of the students who fail to obtain employment in the first six months after leaving the training colleges succeed in obtaining posts in the following 12 months; but I have no material upon which to base an estimate for this year.
