HC Deb 05 December 1984 vol 69 c210W
35. Mr. Roy Jenkins

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what proportion of lecturers at further education colleges in Scotland have undertaken training at the school of further education, Jordanhill, Glasgow.

Mr. Younger

At October 1983, the latest date for which information is available, the basic teaching qualification in further education from the school of further education at Jordanhill college was held by 44 per cent. of lecturers at further education colleges in Scotland. A further 5 per cent. hold a teaching qualification in further education from a college elsewhere in the United Kingdom and an additional 23 per cent. hold a teaching qualification in secondary education. A number of lecturers have also taken in-service training at the school of further education or elsewhere.
