Abstract
- The article compares the status of Science education of the Advance Division School and the Secondary School of Scotland as of 1939. The Advance Division School pupils were non fee-paying and left school for employment at the age of fourteen or fifteen. Secondary school students may or may not have paid fees and left school at the age of seventeen or eighteen. The differences in staffing, the class syllabus, and the use of text books were discussed. Biology was added to curriculum at a later date than other sciences such as chemistry. The teaching of Science in Scotland is not static, but always finding ways to progress.
