§ 68. Mr. Hurdasked the Minister of Education what progress in the past five years has been made in the reorganisation of rural schools in Berkshire to replace all-age schools; how many schools in this programme have yet to be built; and when the final stage in reorganisation will be completed.
§ Mr. Geoffrey LloydThe Berkshire Local Education Authority has made very good progress. 1,620 places have been provided, 1,200 more will be ready by next Easter, and 1,560 more will be started in 1959. One more complete school and one enlargement will still be needed to complete the reorganisation of rural schools in the county.
