Henderson Street School, mentioned in last report as having been closed at the end of June, 1923, was re-opened in Session 1923-24, and the building has been used partly as a Special School and partly for Dressmaking and Needlework Classes from Napiershall School. Sites have been acquired from the Corporation of Glasgow at Riddrie and Mosspark with a view to the early erection of a school in each of these new districts. Pending completion of these schools, temporary arrangements are being made for the accom¬ modation of infant classes early in Session 1924-25. Plans have been prepared for a hostel, clinic, clothing store, and district attendance offices, on a site belonging to the Authority in Marlborough Street, Bridgeton. Meantime, the site is occupied by worn-out dwelling houses. Provision for the tenants of these houses (and consequent demolition of the houses) is to be made by the Corporation in an early building scheme for that locality. Transferred Schools.—Alexander’s School, formerly tenanted by the Authority, and mentioned in last year’s report as having been closed, has been purchased by the Roman Catholic Authorities, and is being reconstructed with a view to early opening as an annexe to St. Mungo’s Academy. St. Constantine’s (New) School, Govan, mentioned in last report, was finished at the end of Session 1923-24 with a view to being opened at the beginning of Session 1924-25. Additions to each of the following schools are in progress :—St. Mary’s School, Maryhill; St. Anthony’s School, Govan; and Sacred Heart School, Bridgeton.
