§ Mr. Christopher Priceasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will send a circular to local education authorities giving guidance about co-operation between colleges of further education and sixth-form colleges and sixth-form units of secondary schools.
§ Mr. Edward ShortI already encourage such co-operation, especially in relation to the plans of local education authorities for secondary reorganisation, and I am also considering whether a detailed study in conjunction with a few authorities might be helpful, and in the light of this will consider whether to issue a circular.
