HC Deb 24 May 1966 vol 729 cc77-8W
Mr. Channon

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what representations he has received about the proposed closing of the Southend School of Architecture; and what action he proposes to take to safeguard the careers of the first-year students and those due to come to the college in September, 1966.

Mr. Goronwy Roberts

I am informed by the Royal Institute of British Architects and the local education authority that they are making every effort to help the students to find places in other schools. Offers of places have so far been received for about half of them.
