HC Deb 29 January 1969 vol 776 cc333-4W
Mr. Maclennan

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what representations he has received since the beginning of the 1968–69 school session about the reorganisation of secondary education in Sutherland; and what reply he has sent.

Mr. Ross

Dornoch and Creich District Council, Dornoch Academy Parent-Teacher Association and a number of individuals from the Dornoch area made representations against the downgrading of Dornoch Academy from the beginning of the current session to a four-year secondary school. I have indicated that this is part of the scheme of reorganisation proposed by Sutherland Education Authority and approved by me as a reasonable way of meeting the educational needs of the County as a whole.
