At the beginning of the war the buildings of Malvern School were requisitioned by the Admiralty, and were, I understand, subsequently taken over by the Ministry of Aircraft Production for research purposes. The Malvern boys found refuge at Harrow, whose numbers had been depleted owing to the raids on London; but the prospective entrants to Harrow have now greatly increased, and while Malvern remains at Harrow it is impossible to find accommodation for them. The Governors of both schools are very anxious that the existing arrangements should be terminated, and I should be glad if you would let me know whether there is any possibility of your Ministry being able to dispense with the buildings at Malvern, in order that the school may now return there.
