ON THE INFLUENCE OF EXAMINATIONS. 371 
(10) The course of study pursued by the pupil at the school, his age, 
the period during which he has attended, and the subjects in which he 
has reached the standard required by the University, will be stated on 
the School-leaving Certificate, which shall only be presented to him when 
he actually leaves the school. 
(11) Any pupil at a school inspected by the University who— 
(a) Distinguishes himself in any form of manual, artistic, or technical 
skill ; or 
(6) Displays any form of general or special capacity not tested by the 
examination ; 
may, if it is desired by the authorities of the school, have a note to this 
effect added to his certificate. 
If desired, the University will undertake to examine in Music and 
Drawing, and to indicate on the certificate proficiency in these subjects.! 
(12) In cases where the Matriculation Examination Papers are used 
for the purpose of the School Examination (Matriculation Standard) the 
examination will be held on the same days, at the same hours, and under 
the same conditions as an ordinary Matriculation Examination, and the 
school may for that purpose become a subordinate centre for the exami- 
nation, provided there shall be a sufficient number of candidates from 
the school, and certain conditions are fulfilled. The University will be 
prepared in order to meet the wishes of a school or group of schools, to 
hold a School Examination at a time other than that of the ordinary 
Matriculation Examination or the time fixed for a regular School Exami- 
nation, provided the whole cost of such special examination is borne by 
the school or group of schools. 
(13) The University has appointed a small Board of Inspectors, con- 
sisting of persons largely experienced in teaching, who act as Moderators 
for the Matriculation Examination, and are at the same time responsible 
for maintaining the standard of the School-leaving Certificate. 
(14) The University is prepared to co-operate with local authorities 
not only by undertaking the inspection of schools which are under the 
control of such authorities, but also by reporting on the result of the 
School Examination with a view to the award of any scholarships and 
exhibitions offered by such authorities. A small additional fee will in this 
latter case be charged to meet the cost of a second revision of the papers 
by the University Examiners, with a view to the candidates being placed 
in order of merit. 
The University will offer to the Governing Bodies of those schools at 
which Special Advanced Papers are taken similar facilities for the award 
of school scholarships and prizes. 
(15) The authorities of any school at which the School Examination 
either of Matriculation Standard or Higher Standard is to be held, should 
obtain from the Registrar of the University Extension Board a form of 
entry for each candidate, which must be returned duly filled in six weeks 
before the date on which the examination will begin, accompanied in 
each case by a certificate of birth or other evidence as to age. At the 
same time the fee of 2/. for each candidate must be paid, unless the 
school has entered into an arrangement with the University as to the 
' Fuller particulars as to Music and Drawing will be found in the Regulations for 
the Inspection of Schools.
