§ Sir E. BoyleBy 1st April, 1962, the latest date for which I have this information, 134 head of department Grade E posts had been created in maintained secondary schools by 25 local education authorities. By that date the 1961 Burnham Report had been in operation for only three months and many authorities had not yet fully implemented its provisions.
