HC Deb 19 November 1974 vol 881 c343W
4. Mr. Whitehead

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will consider schemes for rephasing the timetable of the CSE examination in secondary schools.

Mr. Armstrong

The CSE examining boards are regional bodies, and changes in the timing of the examinations of any board are a matter for agreement between the board and the local education authorities and other local interests. I know of no proposals for a general change in timing.
