3. The teaching of French is largely conversational. 



4. Mathematics is taught by concrete examples and as a tool 



for practical use. 



5. Latin is taught to all boys as a key to their own language, 



and to the older boys for professional examinations. 



6. In geography the boys are taught to infer commercial facts 



from physical features. 



7. In history they are made familiar with the life of the 



people and the changes in its outer manifestations, 



e.g. architecture. 

 S. There is no denominational teaching of religion, but respect 



is encouraged for all honest belief. 

 9. Discipline is kept with scarcely any detention, 

 to. The report form evaluates the whole of the boy's activities, 



not merely his school work.

principle of the school.
