Over-size Classes

HC Deb 14 July 1955 vol 543 c199W

71. Miss Bacon

asked the Minister of Education what immediate steps he proposes to take to arrest the growing number of over-large classes.

Sir D. Eccles

The steady increase in the number of teachers and the school building programme will gradually reduce the number of over-size classes, although there may be no improvement this year in the secondary schools.
