HC Deb 25 October 1950 vol 478 c378W
Squadron Leader A. E. Cooper

asked the Minister of Education what steps he has taken to ensure that Communist teachers are not employed by local education authorities.

Mr. Tomlinson

None. In my opinion the political views of teachers are their own private concern so long as they do not use their position to propagate those views in the schools. If it were brought to my notice that they were doing that, I should at once take action.
