In parliament

Abstract

Replying to an Adjournment debate on the training of teachers Mr Goronwy Roberts, recalled that last year the Secretary of State announced his aim to establish some departments of education in suitably located technical colleges which were doing mainly advanced work. Earlier this year they consulted five local education authorities in different parts of the country — Inner London, Birmingham, Manchester, Nottingham and Sunderland — with a view to colleges in those areas taking part in the new development. All those authorities had expressed a desire to participate, and they were now preparing detailed proposals. It was hoped that the new departments of education would take their first students in the academic year 1967–68.
