HC Deb 11 November 1948 vol 457 cc198-9W
Sir I. Fraser

asked the Minister of Education what progress is being made with the staggering of school holidays, in view of the importance of relieving pressure at holiday resorts at the peak period of the summer.

Mr. Tomlinson

School holidays are fixed at the discretion of the local education authorities and individual school authorities, who are well aware of the need for the staggering of holidays generally.
