The spokesman said: "The teaching of technical subjects in
these schools is not vocationally biased but, nevertheless, results in
the acquisition of quite acceptable basic skills which can be utilised
by means of further training, such as technician apprenticeship, to
produce very useful technicians or technologists",
He emphasised that such schools were never intended to prepare
their students for direct employment in a productive capacity in industry.
However, he pointed out that of 138 secondary school leavers
recruited into the first properly organised technician apprenticeships
in various industries, 110 were from secondary technical schools.
