§ MR. W. ABRAHAM (Glamorgan, Rhondda)asked the Vice President of the Committee of Council on Education, Whether he will consider the desirability of so altering Article 124 of the Education Code so as to allow pupil teachers in Wales to be presented for examination as Queen's Scholars who have been under instruction for the prescribed time at one of the three University Colleges of Cardiff, Aberystwith, and Bangor, without residence at the Training College?
§ THE VICE PRESIDENT (Sir WILLIAM HART DYKE) (Kent, Dartford)It would be difficult to accept on the part of pupil teachers in Wales instruction at the three University Colleges of Cardiff, Aberystwith, and Bangor as equivalent to residence in a Training College, for the syllabus of subjects, the study of which it is thought necessary to enforce on candidates for certificates, is not adopted at those Colleges, and students would, therefore, be placed at a disadvantage in the examination, and would be less eligible as teachers afterwards.
