HC Deb 21 December 1976 vol 923 c108W
Mr. Dudley Smith

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if she is issuing guidance to schools within the State system as to whether or not prizes should be presented as a mark of attainment and if annual ceremonies should be arranged for such presentations.

Miss Margaret Jackson

Such matters are best left to the managers and governors of schools acting in consultation with their local education authority.
