A large proportion of the time of the Cadets is
given to the practical study of Engineering in the
Workshops and Instructional Steamboats attached
to the Colleges, and also in the Training Cruisers.
29. lu all subjects of instruction, the principle will
be followed of giving merit marks for current work.
At the end of each term the Cadet's proficiency and
progress will be tested partly by examination and
partly by the marks gained for current work.
80. The passing-out examination of Cadets is
representative of all subjects studied at the College,
with the exception of Religious Knowledge, which
does not form part or the official examination.
Marks for work done during previous terms are
combined with the marks directly awarded in the
examination.
First, Second and Third Classes will be awarded,
and the class obtained in passing out from the
College couni s afterwards towards promotion to the
rank of Sub-Lieutenant,promotion boing accelerated
according to the following scale: —
For a First Class • 2 months.
For a Second Class 1 month.
Time will alBO be awarded for the course in the
Training Cruiser which will similarly count towards
promotion to Sub-Lieutenant :—

h month.
The greatest amount of time that can be gained
on passing out as Midshipman is accordingly three
months.
31, Cadets may be required to withdraw at any
time if in the opinion of the Lords Commissioners
of the Admiralty:—
(1) They fail to reach a satisfactory standard, or
(2) Their conduct is unsatisfactory, or
1 3) They are unsuitable for the Naval Service.
32. It is to be distinctly understood thatthe period
of training, including the time spent in the Training
Cruiser, is a time of probation, and the parent or
guardian of a Cadet is required to withdraw him
immediately on the receipt of an official request for
his withdrawal.
3. When a Cadet is found to be makinginsutneieut
progress a letter is sent to his Parent or Guardian
warning him of the possibility of having to withdraw
the Cadet unless a marked improvement takes place.
ThiB warning is generally issued a term in advance,
to enable the Parent provisionally to make other
arrangements for continuing the boy's education in
case his withdrawal should become necessary.
