Free University Education
OW let us turn to the University. Some correspondents have assumed that free place regulations apply to the University as well. This is not so. Free tuition in the University must be earned. Parents who have children attending secondary schools would be wise to note these points. All secondary school pupils who have qualified for a Higher Leaving Certificate are entitled to an " Ordinary Bursary" at any of our universities. This bursary provides for the payment of tuition fees to an amount not exceeding £20 per annum. A Higher Leaving Certificate is awarded to those students who have pursued a satisfactory course of study after they have obtained a pass in the University Entrance Examination. Consequently, students who intend to proceed to a University should consider the wisdom of staying on at school after passing matriculation. A matriculation pass will admit you to the University, but not without payment. It is the Higher Leaving \
Certificate that will entitle you to free education at the University--(" Education For All." A. A. Kirk, Wellington Government Youth Centre, 2YA, February 26.)
