HC Deb 28 June 1960 vol 625 cc119-20W
Mr. G. M. Thomson

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many places there are at present in teachers' training colleges in Scotland; and how many places it is planned to have by 1965.

Mr. Maclay

The colleges have accommodated 4,884 students this session but not without some strain. It is planned that they will be able to take about 6,500 students, without strain, by 1965.
