Excerpt from The Training of Secondary Teachers MY chief wish in presenting this report is that it may be of some slight service to the cause of training in secondary education here and in England. Whatever value it may have in this regard - and that may well be very small-it is the out come of experiences which have to me been very interesting and pleasant. The pleasantness has been mainly due to the great kindness I have throughout received from all with Whom this holiday task has brought me into relation - from officials at the India Office, from the Board of Education, from the heads of the institutions I have visited, and many others engaged in training. This gratitude is Specially due to my old schoolfellow at Westminster, Dr. H. F. Heath. Director of Special Inquiries and Reports, whose good offices have been constant and unwearying; also to Mr. P. A. Barnett, His Majesty's Chief Inspector of Training Colleges. Mr. Barnett's suggestions, based on a unique experience of train ing, both theoretical and practical, proved of the greatest service. I have received kindness from so many others that it is impossible to acknowledge the debt individually; but my thanks are due in special to Professor Adams of London University and the London Day Training College, to Pro fessor Findlay at Manchester, and to Mr. Keatinge, Reader in Education at Oxford, because the trial of their patience has been longer continued. I am only in this particular less indebted to Professor Welton at Leeds, to Dr. Fletcher at Cambridge, to Professor Archer at Bangor, to Professor Hughes at Birmingham, to Dr. Lloyd Morgan at Bristol, to Professor Green at Sheffield, to Professor Darroch at Edin burgh and to many others. I remember with special pleasure my visits to St. Mary's Hall, Mount Pleasant, Liverpool; to the Ladies' College, Cheltenham; to Stonyhurst College; to the Borough Road Training College, Isleworth; to Mr. David Salmon at Swansea. To Miss Hodge, Secretary to the Maria Grey College, I am under obligations in respect of secondarytraining which date from much earlier than these furlough studies and which have outlasted them. Very exceptional also is my debt to Dr. Do'rr, Director of the Liebig Realschule, Bockenheim, frankfort-ou-main: he has lavished the ripe fruits of his distinguished career as teacher and pioneer in teaching and training on a stranger, who is however not unmindful of the greatness of the obligation.
