Abstract
IN Great Britain and in other countries the present century, and particularly the last twenty years, have seen great efforts made to improve the school curriculum. It is true that these efforts have been largely experimental, and it cannot be said that they have produced that balanced course which would meet with general, even if not universal, approval. That is partly due to the difficulty of viewing with detachment the traditional courses through which we ourselves have passed, and partly to the endeavour to create new courses by interpolation of new subjects without due regard to the unity of the educational scheme as a whole.
