ADULT EDUCATION
Sir Godfrey Collins, Secretary of State for Scotland, said recently that the Government was prepared to contribute £2O a head to a scheme for adult education. He was discussing the proposal to use Newbattle Abbey as a residential adult educational college for Scotland at a British Institute of Adult Education meeting at Newbattle. What Wales nas done for eight years at Harlctch might now be attempted in Scotland. “We are prepared to make an annual grant to the college provided that financial, administrative, and educational arrangements of a satisfactory and really practical nature are proposed by some thoroughly representative body of managers. Such grant would be on a capitation basis of about £2O a year for each full session pupil.”
