Abstract

THE problem of remedying the admitted inefficiency of our present methods of technical education, and of invigorating the industries of this country with progressive scientific spirit, while at the same time increasing the supply of skilled workmen, is of the greatest national importance, and is a problem the solution of which, in view of international industrial competition, becomes daily more pressing. It is only natural, therefore, that expressions of discontent with the present conditions, and suggestions for improvement, should be heard from many sides; they come, not only from the educationists, but also from the employer, the representatives of the working classes, and the ratepayers, and with especial force from the social reformer; finally, we hear from Cabinet Ministers themselves that legislation on the subject is under consideration.
