HC Deb 13 December 1956 vol 562 c74W
58. Mr. Moyle

asked the Minister of Education what are his present proposals to meet the shortage of teachers in the Midland area; and if he will make a statement.

Sir D. Eccles

I would refer the hon. Member to the Answer which I gave on 6th December to my hon. Friend the Member for Bath (Mr. Pitman). The scheme which I outlined for improving the distribution of teachers is designed to help hard-pressed areas in the Midlands and elsewhere to improve their staffing standards.
