HC Deb 15 November 1956 vol 560 cc31-2W
56. Mr. M. Stewart

asked the Minister of Education whether he will draw the attention of local education authorities to the facilities offered by correspondence colleges and other institutions claiming to prepare children for intelligence tests and other aspects of the 11-plus examination, and claiming to ensure that such children will enter grammar schools.

Sir D. Eccles

No. I cannot believe anyone takes seriously a claim that coaching will get any child a place in a grammar school.
