BROADCASTING SCHOOL
Innovation In Australia
-"w1HE ABC Staff Training | School has been officially opened in Sydney by the Chairman of the ABC (R. J. F. Boyer). This school is the first of its kind in Australia. It has been established fot the rehabilitation of staff returning from the services, and also for the benefit of the newer staff members. "A typical problem, which the ABC Staff Training School would help to solve, is the actual case of an office boy who has come back from the war a Major with M.C. and Bar," said the General Manager , (Colonel Charles Moses). "The school will help him to find a new niche in broadcasting, more fitted to his war experience." F. D, Clewlow, who is in charge of the school, said that though the urgent necessity of the school was rehabilitation, it was an inevitable development
of national broadcasting. It would help those fairly new to broadcasting to gain knowledge of other departments than their own, and it would encourage the younger staff members to put forward their own ideas and criticisms, and help them to find the place in broadcasting most suited to their abilities. There have been two schools this year, and it is hoped next year to run them monthly. Each course lasts three weeks; the first two weeks are devoted to lectures by heads of ABC departments and to discussions, and the third week is set apart for practical work, such as preparation of programme features. A fullyequipped studio is available for the use of the school.
