§ 15. Mr. Martenasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what are her criteria for a secondary comprehensive school having a sixth form.
§ Mrs. Shirley WilliamsI have to look at every proposal for the establishment of a sixth form on its merits. But my concern is that there should be an adequate range of courses without uneconomic staffing or at the expense of the rest of the school. This suggests normally a minimum of 70 pupils and preferably 100.
