RESOLUTIONS OF THE CONFERENCE ON TEACHING ENGLISH.
At a conference held at the Council Chamber on the 25th February, 1878, to consider the question of the teaching of English in the Government Schools, the following gentlemen were present by invitation of His Excellency the Governor, who presided:-
The Honourable the Colonel Commanding the Troops, (Colonel BASSANO, C.B.) The Honourable the Colonial Secretary, (J. GARDINER AUSTIN, C.M.G.)
The Honourable PHINEAS RYRIE.
The Honourable HENRY Lowcock.
The Honourable J. MCNEILE PRICE.
The Honourable FRANCIS BULKELEY JOHNSON.
FREDERICK STEWART, Esquire, Head Master of the Central School.
The Reverend E. J. EITEL, Ph. D.
The following resolutions were arrived at :—
1. That the primary object to be borne in view by the Government should be the teaching of English. 2. That to enable the Central School to give more time to English and less time to Chinese studies, without materially diminishing the amount of Chinese knowledge on the part of the scholars on leaving the School, the preliminary requirements in Chinese knowledge be raised in the case of all such candidates for admission as do not already speak English fairly well to the requirements of Standard IV. of Class I. of the Grant-in-Aid Schedule, (with the exception of Geography).
3. That five hours be given every day (except Saturday) to English, and 24 hours to Chinese studies, but with the understanding that all English lessons will be obligatory, and all Chinese lessons optional, according to declaration on the part of the parents.
