HC Deb 15 May 1986 vol 97 cc538-9W
Mr. Wigley

asked the Secretary of State for Wales what developments there have been with regard to policy on primary education in Wales since the Gittins report.

Mr. Nicholas Edwards

Government policy in respect of primary schools is stated in the White Paper "Better Schools" (Cmnd. 9469, published March 1985). Within Wales, Her Majesty's Inspectorate has issued the following papers: "Curriculum and Organisation of Primary Schools in Wales" (Her Majesty's Stationery Office 1984); "Links between Parents, Community and Primary Schools" (June 1985); and "Leadership in Primary Schools" (June 1985), copies of which I have placed in the Library.
