§ Mr. Wainwrightasked the Minister of Education if he will give the number and capacity of day-teachers' training colleges in England and Wales for the years 1962 and 1963, respectively; and what will be the estimated number of such colleges for the years 1964, 1965 and 1966, respectively.

§ Sir E. BoyleEight day colleges had nearly 1,200 students in 1961–62 and nearly 1,700 in 1962–63. There will be at least twelve day colleges in 1963–64, excluding the newly established day units associated with mainly residential colleges. I do not exclude the possibility of some further development on these lines in the succeeding years, but the main increase in day students will come from intensive use of their facilities by the training colleges generally.
