14. There is again an increase-and a very large one-in the Matriculation and Senior successes in Shanghai. There is a falling off common to most Hongkong schools, Government and Grant alike, in the Matriculation and Junior Locals. The Junior Examination has been made slightly more difficult: the standard, however, might still be raised with advantage.
15. As last year the Diocesan Boys' School won the King Edward Scholarship and Queen's College the President of China Scholarship.
16. There were 29 Students in Training at the University being prepared at Government expense for masterships in the Department. Also two men and two women holding Government Education scholarships are being trained for teaching in other schools. All their fees are paid by Government.
17. The increase in numbers in the Education Department of the University makes the provision of means for their practical training rather difficult. Saiyingpun School is being used to its full capacity as a Practising School. It cannot be said to fulfil this purpose altogether satisfactorily, since Class IV is at present the highest there and accommodation for senior classes is lacking. The Head Master, who is also the Master of Method, makes the best use of the means at his disposal.
