HC Deb 07 December 1970 vol 808 cc24-5W
Mr. Barry Jones

asked the Secretary of State for Wales what reports he receives on the conditions of school-buildings from Her Majesty's inspectors of schools; what reports he has received on unsuitable school buildings; what are the names of such unsuitable Welsh schools; and if he will publish Her Majestys' inspector's reports on this matter.

Mr. Peter Thomas

Many of the reports on Schools prepared by Her Majesty's Inspectors include observations on the buildings. Some of these reports refer to deficiencies in school buildings. The local education authorities have submitted to the Welsh Education Office a list of inadequate schools which they consider need to be replaced. Many of the reports by Her Majesty's Inspectors are issued to the local education authorities and the school governors or managers concerned.
