‘Some recollections and reflections of David Street School, Glasgow (1870-1884) and the Glasgow Free Church Training College (1885-1886) by Minnie (née Craig) Blair (1865-1956); transcribed by her grand-daughter Sheila Craik from her notebook.

These ‘Recollections’ give an insight into the working of ‘The Pupil-Teacher’ system introduced by The Privy Council of the Committee on Education’ in 1846.
