Owing to the death of Mr. W. Curwen early in August, Mr. E. J. Edwards was appointed Master-in-charge on the 1st September.
Buildings.-School is held at Queen's College, three class rooms there being devoted for the purpose. These rooms are satisfactory in every respect. On Wednesdays when European Police Constables are attending a class is held for them in the Police Library, Central Police Station.
Attendance. The following table gives the attendance during the year:
Class No. of School Days Average Daily Attendance European Police Constables 77 22 Indian 92 24.6 Gaol Staff 94 20.1 Average Daily Attendance 46.9Examinations. During the year 15 European Police Constables obtained Certificates of Exemption and 18 Certificates were obtained by the Indian Police Constables and Gaol Staff.
General Remarks.-Considering the fact that duty prevents the men from attending regularly progress is on the whole satisfactory. Special attention is now being given to Colloquial English in the instruction of the Indian Police Constables and Gaol Staff, and it is hoped that a great improvement in this important subject will be made.
