§ Sir E. Graham-Littleasked the Minister of Education whether he is aware of the position of senior teaching staffs in the West Riding, as in an example submitted to him, who are penalised by action taken by the local authorities in the assignment of remuneration in cases of special responsibility; and if he will rectify this position.
§ Mr. TomlinsonThe selection of teachers in primary and secondary schools for posts of special responsibility is a matter for the local education authority. This is made clear in the new Burnham Report, and no action on my part seems to be required in the present case.
