§ Sir W. Jenkinsasked the President of the Board of Education, what steps have been taken for the accommodation of students of physical training colleges who have had to vacate their colleges owing to enemy action; whether the same treatment is given to physical training teachers as is given to two-year training college students; and is he aware of the urgent need of physical training instructors and instructresses?
§ Mr. RamsbothamI am afraid I am not clear as to the particular training colleges to which the hon. Member refers in the first part of his Question, or as to the exact intention of the second part of the Question. If he will communicate with me on the matter I shall be glad to give him any information available. As regards the third part of the Question I am very conscious of the need to maintain a sufficient body of physical training instructors, both men and women, and I have taken steps to see that the physical training staffs of local education authorities are not unduly depleted.
