§ Dr. D. Johnsonasked the Minister of Education what facilities are offered for suitably qualified teachers to obtain the Trainer's Diploma of the Froebel National Foundation; and whether, in view of the fact that the only course for this Diploma in 1964 is in London, there is any arrangement for the reimbursement of travelling expenses for teachers attending a is from other parts of the country.
§ Sir E. BoyleI understand that the Foundation holds an annual written examination in London in December and that in addition candidates have to submit a thesis and undergo practical tests. Candidates prepare for the Diploma in their own time, but the Foundation conducts a series of optional seminars in London to help them. It is open to those who wish to take the examination or attend the seminars to apply to their employers for assistance with travelling expenses.
