HC Deb 10 March 1967 vol 742 c362W
Mr. Davidson

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland why the Scottish Certificate of Education Examination Board has altered requirements for the 1967 examination, art papers, only three months before the date of the examination which requires a full year of preparation.

Mr. Ross

It is my practice to leave the detailed arrangements for the conduct of examinations to the Board. I am informed by it that no changes have been made recently in the art syllabuses for the 1967 examinations that will in any way prejudice candidates' chances of success. Only certain minor practical modifications have been made in the presentation of pottery and block and screen printing for the craft paper.
