Diplomas.
The Association is prepared to grant Diplomas to those students who have passed successfully through a regular course of instruction—extending over at least two years—in one or other of the departments specified hereby—viz., Literary and Commercial, or Scientific and Technical. Candidates will be required to show certificates of attendance, signed by the class teacher, at the various classes specified under the respective departments. The Association will endeavour to provide a two years' course—junior and senior—in each of the prescribed subjects of study. Examinations will be held in the various subjects at the end of each session, and certificates, 1st year's to the junior, and 2nd or 3rd year's to the senior class, will be issued to all students who succeed in passing. Two examiners,; one being the class teacher, shall be appointed for each subject! The examiners, acting jointly, shall prepare examination papers, and determine the standard of efficiency necessary for obtaining the certificate.
Any student who obtains Four certificates shall be entitled to a Junior Diploma, and any student obtaining six shall be entitled to the Association's Senior Diploma.
