…on the Staff of this school this morning.

11 June 1914

Copy of Report received to-day from H. M. I. Mr E. Glasgow.
4th and 5th May 1914.
This School continues to make good progress. Various tests on the past year's syllabuses showed that much of the work had been done thoroughly, and that the teacher of St 5 (Miss A. M. Hope) had been especially successful.
Reading is a satisfactory feature throughout the School; the expression is natural in most of the classes and the subject matter usually well understood.
The Arithmetic results were creditable, but the two lowest standards ought to know their multiplication tables better.
Only a few written exercises were available for inspection. These showed careful work but suggest that not enough attention is paid by the children themselves to the correction of their mistakes. The old exercise books of the pupils should not, as a rule, be destroyed until the new ones contain sufficient evidence of their work and of the teacher's procedure in dealing with it.
Special care is taken in the teaching of Geography
