WILL PERMIT
SPECIALIZATION
With opening of the new school
year in September, the third year of
the new course of studies will be
introduced into the collegiate insti-
tutes, high, vocational and continu
ation schools of the province.
The third year known as grade
XI provides for specialization in any
one of several fields including in
dustrial shop work, agricultural, arts
and crafts, household arts or com
mercial subjects, depending on the
individual pupil. An academic course
is given for those who seek matricul
ation into the university and a gen
eral course for those who prefer to
spend less time on the study of lan
guages and more on commercial work
or shop work or economics.
In the first year of the course in
the secondary schools, pupils under
the nenv curriculum obtain a taste of
languages, business practice, shop
work and home economics or music
and art.
The course in grade IX intended
