HC Deb 08 April 1976 vol 909 c286W
Mr. Nicholas Winterton

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science whether he is satisfied that adequate training is being given to students at teacher training colleges who will be teaching religious knowledge in schools following their training.

Mr. Gerry Fowler

My hon. Friend the Under-Secretary described on 19th March what is being done to maintain and improve the supply of trained teachers of religious education. The content and presentation of the subject in training courses are matters for the training instructions and validating bodies.—[Vol. 907, c. 1864–5.]
