The Teaching of Easy Calculus to Boys

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  03 November 2016

Extract

The majority of the boys who enter the Technical Day School of the Borough Polytechnic Institute come from elementary schools, a few only come from secondary schools. The general age of entry is about 13 years, and the boys are about up to the level of the VIIth standard of a good Council School.

As far as we are able, we select for admission boys who have a mechanical or constructive bias. All the boys who enter are expected to take the full three-years' course of work. At the end of that time they go into engineering workshops.
