HC Deb 13 July 1950 vol 477 cc110-1W
28. Mr. W. Fletcher

asked the Minister of Education what scheme he is preparing to enable unqualified assistant teachers with more than five years' experience, but who are unable to take the one-year's course of training to qualify in the same way as the emergency trained teacher for the increased scale of pay of the emergency trained teacher.

Mr. Tomlinson

I shall do my best to make special one-year courses available for all eligible teachers who made application by the 30th June, 1950, but I have no other scheme in preparation by which uncertificated teachers who do not take a course of training can become qualified teachers.
