HC Deb 13 February 1958 vol 582 c69W
30. Mr. Owen

asked the Minister of Education how many secondary schools and technical colleges are included in the building programme for the year 1957–58; and if he will make a statement on future policy.

Sir E. Boyle

370 secondary school and 75 further education projects are expected to start in 1957–58. In 1958–59 the number of schools will be about the same: rather fewer further education projects are likely to start but their total cost will probably be higher than this year. I cannot say anything yet about schools to be started in 1959–60, but we shall continue to carry out the policy of the White Paper on Technical Education.
