§ Mr. ButlerTo ask the Secretry of State for Education and Science if he will make it his policy to set up an educational trust to promote the formation of grammar schools.
§ Mr. Alan HowarthThe Government's policy is not to impose any particular pattern of secondary school provision on LEAs. It would therefore not be appropriate to set up a trust to promote the formation of grammar schools. Any statutory proposals put forward by local education authorities for the formation of grammar schools would be considered on their merits.
