HC Deb 19 April 1985 vol 77 c283W
Mrs. Renée Short

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what consultations he has planned to have with directors of local education authorities about extending recruitment for greater numbers of teachers for pupils from ethnic minority groups.

Mr. Dunn

As my right hon. Friend informed the House on 14 March at column 452, he intends to consider with the education service and with representatives of the ethnic minorities ways in which a greater proportion of the teacher force might be recruited from ethnic minority groups. The exact form of the consultation has yet to be determined.
