Additional marks will be given to a Student for success in one of the following subjects, provided that she passes for a Certificate, according to this Syllabus, without counting such special subject.

A paper in 1. Latin, 2. French, and 3. German will be set for each year, and candidates who do not take a Science Subject, may take one of these languages. Students will be examined in those languages only for which a special course of instruction is provided in the Time Table of their College.

This paper will contain grammatical questions, and easy passages* in prose English.

for translation into

This paper will contain harder passages (in poetry as well as prose), for translation into English, with questions upon the construction of particular sentences.

In 1878, the passages will be taken from Sallust's Catiline, Virgil's Eneid, Book VI., Souvestre's Un Philosophe sous les Toits, Racine's Iphigénie, Sybel's Prinz Eugen von Savoyen, and Goethe's Hermann und Dorothea.

1. The Lords of the Committee of Council on Education consider the subject of Science Instruction
in Training Colleges. They believe that the time has arrived when a special examination should be
instituted at a period of the year better adapted to the Training Colleges than May; and that the
nature of the examination and the payments made on the results should be modified to suit the
circumstances of those Colleges.

2. They therefore determine that in future a special examination in Science shall be held in
Training Colleges in December, immediately before the ordinary Christmas Examination.

3. The examination will not be open to Acting Teachers. It will be held in those subjects only for
which a special course of instruction is provided in the time table of the College, and will be
conducted by one of Her Majesty's Inspectors, or by an officer of the Science and Art Department.

*For information respecting the examinations in Science and Art, and for copies of the Science and Art London, W." Directories, application may be made to "The Secretary, Science and Art Department, South Kensington,

1. Mathematics.

2. Theoretical Mechanics.

3. Applied Mechanics.

4. Acoustics, Light, and Heat.

5. Magnetism and Electricity.

6. Inorganic Chemistry, including Practical Chemistry.

7. The examination (except for Mathematics), will be based on the syllabus of the several subjects given in the Science Directory. But the two stages, Elementary and Advanced, will be treated as a whole-one paper only being set. These examination papers will be framed much as the present May papers are framed, that is to say, with a certain number of compulsory questions and a certain number of optional questions, some of the latter being more difficult, and more highly marked, than the rest. Questions will also be set on the method of teaching various branches of the subject, 8. The successful students will be placed in the 1st or 2nd Class, the Standard for a 2nd Class being as high as that of a good 2nd Class in the present Advanced Stage, and for the 1st Class of a good 1st Class in the Advanced Stage.

9. All students who pass will be registered as qualified to earn payments on results and will receive certificates, but no prizes will be given.
