HC Deb 11 May 1966 vol 728 c92W
94. Mr. Hordern

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science whether, in view of the overcrowding now experienced at the Southwater County Primary School, he will give his consent to the construction of a new school in the 1967–68 programme.

Mr. Redhead

My right hon. Friend is now considering proposals made by local education authorities for inclusion in the second part of the 1967–68 school building programme. Those put forward by the West Sussex authority include a project to replace the Southwater County Primary School but he cannot come to a decision on it until he has compared its merits and urgency with those of the other proposals before him.
