§ Mr. Robin F. Cookasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what is the best estimate available to him of the annual output of newly qualified women teachers of physical education in 1977, 1980 and 1985.
§ Mr. McElhoneIf all students now in training at Dunfermline College of Physical Education successfully complete their courses the output will be 94 in 1977 and 155 in 1980. The former figure is relatively low as the majority of students who entered in 1974 are taking the four-year BEd course introduced that year rather than the three-year diploma course. The output in 1985 cannot be estimated until decisions have been made about intake to teacher training courses in 1981.
