Tho only boy who appeared in the T.ML.A, and T.A.¥ examination in March
Inst was successful in obtaining a vacancy in the I.A.F and is now under.
going training at Cranwell.
9, Organisation.—My predecessor in para. 14 of his inspection repatt
referred to the Principal's intention of carrying out a detailed inspection
of the elasses. ‘This, however, has so far proved to be impracticable on
account of pressure of other work, But the appointment of an additional
English Master and a thorough revision of the internal organisation,
whereby the bulk of financial and_routine administration will be under-
taken by the Headmaster acting as Bursar instead of by the Principal, will
enable the Jatter to devote more time each day to the supervision and co-
ordination of work in the class-rooms. J am glad to find that there is now
a member of the staff directly responsible to the Principal for the organisa-
tion and teaching of his own subject throughout the school.
10. Educational tours.—A party of boys accompanied by two masters
went to Burma in April 1988. A smaller parly spent a month camping
and trekking in Kashmere in July and August last. A party from the
Scindia School, Gwalior, was welcome during the Christmas vacations.

‘The disparity of ages still presents a serious difficulty, but appears to be
largely unavoidable owing to the difficulties of classification inherent in &

12, General conclusions.—For reasons already stated I have Co ee
myself mainly to matters of administration, but 1 should not like hoppy,
this repori without recording my impression that the College is a bit bearing
and successful place, most ably directed. The manners and gener Jate the
of the boys were very pleasant. I wish in particular to Coane ut the
