Mr. Lindsayasked the Minister of Education whether she is a party to the calling-up of teachers under the age of 30 years during the present emergency; 2498W and what is the policy of her Ministry on this question.
§ Miss WilkinsonSo far as I am aware there are no medically fit men teachers under 30 now serving in the schools. A few such men have taken up other forms of war service. As and when they can be released from such service, it is the Government's policy that they should be allowed, if they wish, to return to teaching work in recognised schools.
