HC Deb 03 June 1965 vol 713 cc251-2W
54. Mr. Dalyell

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what proposals he has for a four-term year in teachers' training colleges.

Mr. Crosland

I shall shortly be asking colleges of education to examine the organisation of their courses with a view to securing by one means or another a more productive use of their facilities. I shall suggest a number of ways by which this might be achieved, including what have come to be known as "Box and Cox" schemes and various patterns of a four-term year.
