HC Deb 10 May 1892 vol 4 c593
*SIR A. ROLLIT (Islington, S.)

The Motion I have to make relates to the examination of teachers and pupil teachers, extending the number of opportunities for teaching and for examination. It is simply a recognition of the lectures, classes, and certificates of the University Extension System as a sufficient test, and I am glad to say the Vice President of the Council assents to the proposal as an improvement in the Code.

Motion made, and Question proposed, That an humble Address be presented to Her Majesty praying that the following be added to the Code of Regulations by the Lords of the Committee of Privy Council on Education, 1892, in page 39, column 5, at bottom of of column, aid:— 8. Marks will also be given to candidates who shall present University Extension Certificates awarded by the University of Cambridge, the University of Oxford, or the Universities Joint Board, London, provided that the certificates shall have been obtained for a course of study in one subject, other than those mentioned in the Schedule or in Notes 5 and 6 thereof, which has been previously approved by the Department and is certified to have included attendance at not less than 24 weekly lectures and classes."—(Sir Albert Rollit.)

Motion agreed to.

To be presented by Privy Councillors.
