§ Mrs. Bainasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what is the average class size in special schools in the Strathclyde Region.
§ Mr. McElhoneRecommended class sizes differ substantially for different handicaps. An overall average class size would therefore have no value as an indicator and is not calculated. The overall teacher/pupil ratio in special education in Strathclyde as at September 1977 was 1:9.6.
