§ 74. Mrs. Whiteasked the Minister of Education what is his estimate of the total number of teachers likely to be available in the years 1965, 1966, and 1967; and how many of these are likely to be employed in primary and secondary schools, respectively.
§ Sir D. EcclesOn the best assumptions I can make, the estimated numbers of teachers in primary and secondary schools are 290,000 in January, 1965, 297,000 in 1966 and 308,000 in 1967. It is impossible to make a reliable forecast of the distribution of teachers in these years between primary and secondary schools.
