HC Deb 21 July 1981 vol 9 c77W
Mr. Nicholas Winterton

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will establish procedures to ensure that the content of primary school curricula cannot be influenced by pressure groups whose major concern is not educational.

Dr. Boyson

We look to the good sense of heads and teachers to ensure that unsolicited material is scrutinised with care before any use is made of it in schools. My hon. Friend has written to my right hon. and learned Friend about a particular instance, and he will receive a reply shortly.
