Thompsonasked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he will examine the possibility of applying on a wider scale in junior secondary schools throughout Scotland the Outward Bound experiment as operated at Queen Anne Secondary School, Dunfermline, for training in outdoor activities and studies, details of which have been sent to him by the hon. Member for Dunfermline.
§ Mr. NobleI welcome the experiments in Outward Bound activities being carried out in Queen Anne Secondary School, Dunfermline, and in other Scottish schools. Developments of this sort, which inevitably depend on local initia-182W tive and interest, have already been commended to schools generally in the pamphlet on junior secondary education recently issued by my Department and in its annual reports, and it is ready to give any help it can in particular instances.
