HC Deb 08 November 1955 vol 545 cc181-2W
Mr. Albu

asked the Minister of Education if he will state the number of students at present enrolled at technical colleges in sandwich courses in engineering and applied science.

Sir D. Eccles

In the 1954–55 session, 1,522 students were taking a variety of these courses leading to different levels of qualification. I have no figure for the present session, but I know that a number of additional courses have been started.
