§ Sir M. Galpernasked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he intends to apply the principles of comprehensive education in Scotland.
§ Mr. RossMany education authorities have already made considerable progress with the reorganisation of secondary education on comprehensive lines and a number of developments are at present in hand. It is my policy to expedite progress on these lines. I intend to ask education authorities to review the position and to report on their future plans, and I hope to give them some guidance as to how development on these lines can best proceed.
