Mr. Piratin
asked the Minister of Education what is the order of priority for the various educational buildings in his building programme.
Mr. Tomlinson
There is no rigid order of priority. The main pattern of educational building up to the end of 1952 is described in Circular 191, a copy of which I am sending to the hon. Member.
Mr. Piratin
asked the Minister of Education how many school places it is estimated will be provided as a result of the execution by the 139 local education authorities of their 1949 programmes for building new schools and classroom accommodation.
Mr. Tomlinson
The completion of major projects for new school accommodation in the 1949 programme is expected to provide about 120,000 new places in primary schools and about 55,000 new places in secondary schools.
