IN PARLIAMENT
Abstract
The Education Bill has been accorded an unopposed Second Reading in the Lords. For the Government, Baroness Phillips, moving the Second Reading, said that the various local authorities and teachers' associations were consulted about the objects of the Bill and had expressed agreement with its intentions. The Bill was concerned with the governing bodies of certain educational establishments maintained and at present administered by local education authorities. Those were colleges of education, certain establishments of further education and special schools. The Bill was not concerned with voluntary institutions of education. The purpose of the Bill was to provide the establishments with substantial responsibility for their academic task and increased freedom in the performance of it.
