HC Deb 20 November 1979 vol 974 c120W
50. Mr. Newens

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if it is his policy to maintain and increase the choice of subjects available to pupils in State-owned secondary schools.

Dr. Boyson

My right hon. and learned Friend wishes to ensure a satisfactory curriculum for all pupils, and this will be one of the objectives in the consultations to follow the recent publication of my Department's report on local authority arrangements for the school curriculum.
