Extracts from the Minute of the Head Master of Queen's
College dated 17th. June, 1903.
"I fear it will be found impracticable to
arrange for progress in Chinese and English Schools to proceed pari passu as suggested. For example, when the Vernacular School is formed, boys from English Class IV will, on examination by Native Masters, be sent to each of the five sections (several having to go to the lowest section) of Vernacular School; if however these boys pass well in English they will leave the College in preference to remaining another year in English Class IV amongst the failures in English. The same
principle applies to all classes."

"I regret that in view of the restitution of
Vernacular School the Governing Body considers an Entrance Examination
still necessary, as I fear it will have a very prejudicial effect."
