Excerpt from Natural Science in Education, Being the Report of the Committee on the Position of Natural Science in the Educational System of Great Britain, 1918 The Committee, which was appointed by the Prime Minister in August 1916, sat on 45 days and in addition sub-committees appointed for the consideration of particular sections of the work met on 51 days. We have received the evidence of 52 witnesses, including representatives of Government Departments, of professional bodies, and of a number of important Associations connected with education, as well as individual teachers and persons concerned with the applications of science to industry. A list of the witnesses together with a list of the Memoranda that were presented to us are given in Appendices I. and II., pp. 248-253. We are also indebted to the Conjoint Board of Scientific Societies for suggesting the names of representative men of Science, who could speak on behalf of Agriculture, Chemistry, Geology, Engineering and Metallurgy; from these we received a number of valuable observations on the educational aspects of their special subjects. A large amount of the information on which our Report is based was obtained in answer to questionnaires which we addressed to schools, universities, and industrial firms. We received, for instance, valuable and detailed replies from nearly all of the 76 schools on the Head Masters' Conference which do not work under the Regulations of the Board of Education. These replies enabled us to form an opinion as to the position of Science in a large number of important schools about which information was not otherwise procurable.
