...unwilling or incapable of taking advantage of the expensive opportunities of the Tutorial System, do not let them slop through four wasted years. Give them an education they deserve and need; an extra course per year, hour examinations, quizzes, and attendance. This will quickly stimulate the gifted to return into the fold, and will at least give a real, rounded education for the rest.
