HC Deb 17 February 1965 vol 706 c219W
17. Mr. Dempsey

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will approve the building of a new physical education college in the West of Scotland, in view of the need for more adequate and autonomous up-to-date accommodation; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Ross

New and larger premises in Edinburgh are under construction for the Dunfermline College of Physical Education for women and an extension of the Scottish School of Physical Education (for men) is being planned as part of the redevelopment of Jordanhill College of Education. The Scottish Council for the Training of Teachers, which advises me on matters of this kind, has not suggested to me that any new centre is required for the training of teachers of physical education.
