HC Deb 22 March 1965 vol 709 c30W
Lady Gammans

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science whether he will bring to the attention of the Schools Council for Curriculum and Examination the relevance of courses of world studies to encourage a world perspective in education.

Mr. Crosland

The need for a world perspective in the teaching of subjects such as history and geography is I understand accepted by the Council as one of the assumptions behind the studies of the curriculum which they are making in connection with the raising of the school leaving age.
