A paper read before the Society of Arts on Wednesday May 23rd 1883. Calls for specialised technical education at secondary level for those who will be engaged as trade and craftsmen in their future lives. Talks of the principal of "bifurcation", i.e. giving a school a commercial as well as a technical character. Advocates state and employer funding to avoid giving the education "a too distinctly eleemosynary character." (Definition of eleemosynary: relating to charity). Printed in London by William Trounce, 10, Gough Square, Fleet Street, E.C., in 1883. Price Sixpence. Signed Gilbert R Redgrave, June 1883.
