HC Deb 19 July 1962 vol 663 cc91-2W
Mr. Watkins

asked the Minister of Education what advice he has given to training colleges regarding their policy about the admission of candidates interested in teaching in secondary modern schools; and whether he will make a statement.

Sir E. Boyle

I am sending the hon. Member a copy of a letter about the balance of training which was sent to additional primary school places it is intended to complete by the end of 1962 and the end of 1963.

Sir E. Boyle

As the reply to the first part of the Question contains a number of figures I will, with permission, circulate it in the OFFICIAL REPORT. In reply to the second part of the Question it is expected that 480 additional primary school places will have been provided in the Crumpsall sub-district by 1963, with the possibility of 80 temporary places this autumn.

Following is the information:

all training colleges on 1st October, 1960. The general guidance then given was confirmed last autumn.
