§ 70. Mr. Bairdasked the Minister of Education why a parent has been refused admittance for his child to the school nearest his home, which the other children of the family already attend, and of which details have been sent him.
§ Mr. TomlinsonThis child was refused admission to the school in question by the local education authority because the parent lives outside the catchment area which it has lately been necessary to lay down. The case is now before me for a determination under Section 37 (3) of the Education Act, 1944. I shall give my decision when I have considered the views of both parties, including those of the parent, for which I have asked.
