HC Deb 20 December 1965 vol 722 c380W
Sir M. Galpern

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will give an assurance that there will be a place for every pupil by the time the school-leaving age is raised to 16 years in 1970.

Mr. Ross

Given efficient use of existing resources and of the new places to be provided, the education authorities should be able to accommodate all the additional pupils when the leaving age is raised in session 1970–71.
