HC Deb 26 February 1968 vol 759 cc271-2W
Mr. Hooson

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he is satisfied with the arrangements made for transmitting to practising teachers new methods and techniques now being evolved; a ad if he will make a statement.

Mrs. Shirley Williams

There is constant development in this field. New methods and techniques, including those deriving from the Schools Council's wide-ranging programme of development and testing, are transmitted to teachers through publications, through the work of teachers' centres and through in-service training courses organised by local education authorities, the Department, the universities, colleges of education and a number of independent bodies.
