HC Deb 22 November 1966 vol 736 c269W
Mr. Armstrong

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what proposals he has to ensure that serving teachers have the opportunity to qualify for the Bachelor of Education degree; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Redhead

I understand that the possibility of part-time and deferred full-time courses for serving teachers leading to a B.Ed. degree is already being examined by London University. I hope that more schemes of this sort may become possible later on. The first task, however, for all those concerned is to establish and work out in detail the new full-time degree courses for students in initial training.
