Changes in Horsham education urged by headmaster
Horsham High School headmaster Mr P F Wilkin told the High School Ladies Auxiliary that four to five years will bring many education changes. He cited night classes in trades for men and women, pending courses in woodwork and accounting, and the need for better school facilities including rest rooms, staff rooms, and a private study for prefects. He praised Director Major General Ramsay and urged local support for improvements and new equipment such as a visual projector for teaching.
