§ Mr. Greenwayasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will take steps to ensure that full-time serving teachers rather than union nominees are appointed to the controlling bodies of the Schools Advisory Examinations Council and the Schools' Curriculum Advisory Body.
§ Dr. BoysonThe Government's proposals to establish an examinations council and a school curriculum development council are the subject of discussion with the local authority associations, and other interested bodies. It will be important that the new councils should be able to draw on the experience of practising teachers among their members, and this will be borne in mind during discussions.
