HC Deb 30 July 1953 vol 518 c177W
28. Sir G. Lloyd

asked the Minister of Education to what extent the appointment of an inspector of any category of school is confined to a choice among those who have had practical teaching experience in that category.

Miss Horsbrugh

Inspectors are not assigned to work solely in one category of school. In filling vacancies, therefore, the field of choice is not restricted in the way implied in the Question. It is my general aim to secure in the Inspectorate as a whole adequate practical experience in all the types of school and establishment which fall to be inspected.
