DESCRIPTION OF COURSE

The Course is specially designed as a pre-employment training for

boys between the ages of 13+ and 168 years, preparatory to entering i n t o trade or industrial occupations. A sound training in the

Engineering and Woodwork Workshops is combined with the neces- sary instruction in Practical Drawing, Calculations and Workshop

Science, and the usual general educational subjects are continued .. throughout the Course. The classes are so arranged as to afford the

C; opportunity of gauging the boys' aptitude for, and inclination towards, particular types of occupation. Religious Instruction is given by the

local Clergy; while Physical Training and Organised Games are also provided.

I

The importance of stressing the need for attendance at this Cpurse

of boys who intend to follow trade rather than clerical occupations cannot be too highly emphasised. Very many employers and firms

make it a necessary condition for entry into employment and no other

boys are accepted; During recent years this practice is becoming - . ,

more and more common, and the boy who has not had this preliminary I

training is severely handicapped. The School is continually being

approached by employers for-boys, and for years past there has been

no difficulty in finding suitable employment for the pupils. .,
